Watch: Naseem Shah tries to replicate Cristiano Ronaldo's iconic 'Siu' celebration in training session

Pakistan speedster Naseem Shah is known for his ability to trouble batters with his skills and pace. But in a training session ahead of Pakistan's home Test series against Bangladesh, Naseem was seen trying to do something that he has never done before.

The 21-year-old fast bowler tried to replicate Portugal's legendary football player Cristiano Ronaldo's trademark 'Siu' celebration. It is a celebration that has gathered attention through Cristiano Ronaldo, who often celebrates this way after scoring a goal.

In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), the Pakistani players can be seen playing football in a training session. Before kicking the ball, Naseem did the 'Siu' celebration, although, in a funny way.

The celebration is performed worldwide by various athletes as well. Among the cricketers, India fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has been seen doing this celebration several times after picking up a wicket.

Naseem Shah will be seen in action in the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh where he is expected to be one of Pakistan's key bowlers alongside Shaheen Shah Afridi. On flat batting wickets, his role with the new ball and the old ball will be crucial.

Pakistan to field all-pace attack in Rawalpindi for first Test

The youngster can swing the new ball and also has the skills to reverse a ball when it is old. He can consistently bowl north of 140 kmph and can trouble the batters with his control over line and length.

Pakistan have already released Abrar Ahmed, the only spinner in their squad for the Test series against Bangladesh. It means they are set to go with an all-pace attack for the second time in a home Test match in 28 years.

As a result, Naseem will have a crucial role to play in the match. The last time they fielded an all-pace attack was also in Rawalpindi in the year 2019 when Test cricket returned to Pakistan after a decade.

The first match for Pakistan since T20 World Cup 2024

The two-match Test series will be begin on August 21. Both the Test matches in the series will be played at Rawalpindi. The series is going to be crucial for both teams who will be aiming to gain some crucial points for the World Test Championship (WTC).

This will be Pakistan's first match since their early exit from the T20 World Cup 2024. Although Pakistan's bowlers had a good time in the tournament the batters let them down, resulting in their elimination.

Naseem Shah will be an important player for Pakistan in a packed schedule coming up. After playing Bangladesh, Pakistan will play England at home for a three-match Test series.
