Pakistani cricket star Yasir Shah got the opportunity to meet Prime Minister Imran Khan - a cricketer turned politician - after equalling the former pacer's bowling record recently in UAE.
The Pakistani leg-spinner not only became the fastest cricketer to take 200 Test wickets earlier this month - breaking an 82-year-old record - but with final figures of 14/184 against New Zealand in the final Test in Dubai, he also got the second best match return ever for Pakistan in Test cricket, bettered only by PM Imran Khan, who took 14/116 against Sri Lanka in Lahore in 1982.
The 32-year-old Shah met Khan at his Banigala residence in Islamabad over the weekend.
