All cricketers are a part of a One Big “family.”: Pakistani Star Mohammad Rizwan
“Believe me, I haven’t felt strange about it at all. I also make fun of him and tease him a lot. He is a very nice person with incredible concentration and focus. If you can learn something from someone else, you should do so “Rizwan was quoted on cricwick.net by the ICC’s official website.
Rizwan went on to say about the cricket community: “For us, the cricket community is like a family. But if you’re playing for Pakistan and your brother is playing for Australia, you’ll obviously try to get him out because you’re representing your country. But that fight only takes place on the ground. Otherwise, we’re like one big family. If I say ‘our Virat Kohli,’ I will not be mistaken. Or ‘our Pujara,’ ‘our Smith,’ or ‘our Root,’ because we are all part of the same family.”
Pujara scored 720 runs in five matches for Sussex this season, with his best knock coming against Durham, where he scored 203 runs. Rizwan had mixed results for Sussex, and he even bowled medium pace against Durham as the game was heading to a draw.
Rizwan scored 159 runs in four matches for Sussex this season.
