Pakistan all-rounder Anwar Ali has opened up on his performances as an all-rounder being better than many players in domestic white-ball cricket in the last couple of years. Anwar Ali made his T20 international debut for Pakistan in 2008 but hasn’t cemented his place in the playing XI after that.

He last played an international game for Pakistan in 2016 and has been dealing with a lot of injuries after that which has kept him out of the national team for a long time now. However, he has recovered now and he recently signed up for the Kashmir Premier League playing for Muzaffarabad Tigers.
