T20 World Cup 2022 Shadab Khan is batting too low in this lineup - Gautam Gambhir lauds Pakistan all-rounder s knock

Shadab Khan played a belligerent knock in Pakistan's win against South Africa. Gautam Gambhir has lauded for his all-round performance in the match against South Africa and opined that he should bat up the order for Pakistan. Shadab smoked 52 runs off 22 balls to help the Men in Green post a formidable total of 185/9 in the Group 2 Super 12 game in Sydney on Thursday, November 3. He then scalped two wickets in his first over as Pakistan registered a comfortable 33-run win via the DLS method in the rain-truncated game. While reviewing the game on Star Sports, Gambhir asked for the spin-bowling all-rounder to be promoted in the batting order. He said: "He is a proper match-winner. I believe Shadab Khan is batting too low down in this batting lineup. He is a batter who can easily bat at No. 4 or No. 5 for you in this format." The former India opener was in awe of some of the shots played by Shadab. He elaborated: "He played some incredible shots. Quite a few world-class batters will feel ashamed seeing some of the shots he played, the six he hit against Shamsi over long-off and after that against Nortje, who has the pace." Gambhir added that Shadab's knock was instrumental in taking Pakistan to a mammoth total after they were in a spot of bother at one stage. He explained: "You scored 50 runs off 20 balls, that too coming down the order. We all were feeling at one point that if Pakistan scores even 150, it would be a good total but if you take them to 185, what can be better than that." -ball and a double-strike in his first over
