A player of Pakistan cricket team, who often remains in controversies due to his bowling action more than his bowling. We are talking about Pakistan’s spinner Usman Tariq, who is now ready to create a stir on the soil of England. Mystery spinner Usman Tariq has got a big opportunity in England’s prestigious T20 league i.e. T20 Blast, which can prove to be a turning point in his career.
Pakistan’s 28-year-old spinner Usman Tariq has signed a contract with England’s county team Warwickshire. He will be a part of the team in the upcoming T20 Blast. Tariq will be available to play throughout the tournament and after this he will be seen playing for Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred.
Earned name very quickly in international cricket
Usman Tariq’s journey to international cricket has been very fast. He made it to the Pakistan team within two years of his T20 debut. In the 9 T20 International matches played so far, he has taken 18 wickets and both his average and economy have been excellent. Tariq’s specialty is his variety. His combination of offbreaks, googlies and legbreaks, as well as his characteristic pause before bowling, make him more dangerous. After his brilliant performance in the Pakistan Super League, Tariq got a chance to play in leagues like Caribbean Premier League, ILT20 and Abu Dhabi T10. Now he is going to step into the English league for the first time.
Team management expressed confidence
Warwickshire’s performance director James Thomas expressed happiness over this signing and said that Usman can prove to be a high-impact player for the team. He said that Tariq’s skill, tactical understanding and hunger to continuously improve make him dangerous in modern white-ball cricket. He also said that this deal becomes more special due to the coordination between Warwickshire and Birmingham Phoenix, which will provide continuity to the players in both the tournaments and the team will benefit from better performance. This is a big opportunity for Usman Tariq to establish himself at the global level. Now it will be interesting to see how effective his mystery spin proves to be on the pitches of England.
