New Zealand Call For Wasim

Recommended Posts

New Zealand want the help of retired reverse swing bowler Wasim Akram after their home Test series defeat to Pakistan.

The bowling of Shoaib Akhtar caused New Zealand problems and captain Stephen Fleming says his side could learn from another reverse swinger like Wasim.

Why not go to the best, and if we can get him, great," said Fleming.

"Certainly if we can get the best players in the world at that skill, then it would be great to learn."

New Zealand have some useful exponents of reverse swing to call on, namely injured star Shane Bond and former Test players Danny Morrison and left-armer Geoff Allott.

But Wasim is the master, with 414 Test wickets and 502 one-day scalps before his retirement this year.

There was a stir in Pakistan last month when media reports said he had been enlisted to help India's bowlers on their tour of Australia.

That came to nothing but Akram did not rule out helping bowlers from other countries.

Fleming said New Zealand's batsmen did not get much practice at dealing with reverse swing.

"We don't get exposed to 150kmh inswingers that often. It's very hard to get facilities to practise that."
