Pakistan managed to register a dominant win in the last two Test matches of their three-game series against England. Having lost the first Test of the series by an innings and 47 runs, Pakistan pulled off a spectacular comeback and managed to clinch the series by winning the second and third Test.
One of the star performers of the series was 31-year-old Sajid Khan. Winning the Player of the Match in the second Test, Sajid was exceptional in the third clash as well. With 10 wickets in the third Test, Sajid took a total of 19 wickets across the series.
After the series, Sajid was asked by a reporter that he was scaring the English batters. Replying to the question, the 31-year-old revealed that it is not his intention to scare anyone, but God has blessed him with an intimidating face.
“I didn’t scare anyone, but you people keep saying this. God has given me such a look that even if I laugh, people get scared,” Sajid Khan was quoted as saying by the Indian Express.
“Thankful to god for the series win. There was no pressure as such. I was making a comeback, but there were people who backed me,” Sajid added.
