Shinwari targets five against India

Pakistan’s fast-rising paceman Usman Shinwari has a wish – to take five wickets against India in the high voltage match in the Asia Cup in Dubai on Wednesday.

The left-armer took 3-19 to help Pakistan crush Hong Kong by eight wickets in their Group A match on Sunday before romping home in the 24th over for the loss of two wickets.

Asked if he wishes to get popular like everyone who performs in an Indo-Pak match, Usman said: ” Yes, I know who perform well in the match becomes popular. Today I have taken three wickets so my target will be to take five wickets because it will be the first time I will be playing against India.”
