Pakistan National Cricket Team keeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan is having a great game in the ongoing first Test against the West Indies National Cricket Team. The match between the two teams is taking place at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan.
Pakistan National Cricket have been all over the West Indies National Cricket Team with the ball. After posting a total of 230 runs on the board, the spin duo of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali have been wreaking havoc across the opposition batters and have put their team in a strong position.
While Sajid Khan and Noman Ali have been brilliant with the ball, Mohammad Rizwan too is making sure that he plays his part behind the stumps. The keeper-batter has been sledging the batters and is making sure that he puts questions in the minds of batters with his words.
One of his best sledges came when Kevin Sinclair came to bat. The right-hander walked out to bat after the West Indies National Cricket Team lost their 6th wicket for just 42 runs. As he arrived at the crease, Mohammad Rizwan was caught saying: "Brother, welcome to the graveyard."
