“As a cricketer, should you ask me, I really feel he ought to keep on with solely Test and ODI codecs. T20I format drains quite a lot of his vitality,” said Akhtar in an interaction with Sports Tak. “He is a very excited kind of character. He wants to be out there, he wants to look good. He wants to have a good time in T20Is. He likes it. But at times, he needs to save his body. How old is he right now? 34 right? Easily he can play for about 6 to 8 years. If he plays 30-50 more Test matches, I’m sure it won’t be difficult for him to score 25 centuries in those Test matches,” he added.

Luckily, he’s a robust man, he’s a Punjabi man. It’s nice that he’s in way of thinking. He is concentrating and having time together with his cricket. So he ought to stay targeted and cross the 100-century barrier,” Shoaib Akhtar added.
