Kane Williamson takes cheeky dig at Mohammad Yousuf

Star New Zealand batter Kane Williamson took a cheeky dig at Pakistan batting coach Mohammad Yousuf for not giving him “batting tips”.

Following an entertaining draw at the National Bank Cricket Arena on Friday, Williamson had a chat with rookie Pakistan batters on the sidelines.

“Yousuf bhai’s got lots of things to teach me but he’s not letting me know yet,” Williamson said after the second Test. “He [Yousuf] said after the Test I will give you all the answers. I am waiting for it man. He is keeping all the secrets. Where are these tips man jeez.”

“Honesty watching him.. you guys must have watched him play a lot… oh my goodness.. to easy,” he said.

In the video Pakistan batters Shan Masood, Saud Shakeel, Abdullah Shafique, and Salam Ali Agha can be seen asking various question to the New Zealand white-ball captain.

Pakistan’s batting coach Yousuf told Kane Williamson that his batting stride is perfect for all conditions.

“Your stride is perfect for all conditions,” said Yousuf adding that “you have got runs here, Australia, England, New Zealand.

“You have the perfect stride. I am not a fan of bigger strides.” Williamson nodded and replied: “I take shorter strides. It helps me to counter the reverse swing as well.”

After the conclusion of the Test series, both teams will now play three ODIs, which are part of the ICC World Cup Super League.
