Karachi Kings’ assistant coach Ravi Bopara expressed his unwavering support for the seasoned all-rounder Mohammad Nawaz during a post-match press conference following the team’s defeat against Multan Sultans. Bopara emphasized Nawaz’s wealth of experience in T20 cricket and international matches, labeling him as a valuable asset for the team.
“Nawaz has been a consistent presence in T20 cricket and the PSL since its inception,” Bopara remarked. “With his extensive experience, he deserves an extended run in the team. Lower averages in formative stages often lead to breakthrough performances at the international level. It’s essential to persist with players like him to allow them to find their rhythm.”
Bopara also reflected on the ongoing rebuilding process within the Karachi Kings squad, highlighting the emergence of promising young talent such as Muhammad Irfan Khan.
“I’ve been particularly impressed with players like Irfan Khan Niazi,” Bopara noted. “His growth since last year has been remarkable. He has become a formidable fielder, consistently saving runs for the team. His batting prowess is also improving, reflecting growing confidence. He represents the future of Karachi Kings, along with other talented young bowlers waiting for their chance to shine.”
In conclusion, Bopara’s steadfast support for Nawaz and acknowledgment of rising talent underscore Karachi Kings’ commitment to nurturing a competitive and dynamic team for future seasons of the Pakistan Super League.
