Shahnawaz Dahani lit up this year’s Pakistan Super League (PSL) with a blistering showdown. The right-arm fast bowler belted out one feisty masterclass after the other that ushered Multan Sultans to the coveted title. He also finished the tournament on a high, being the highest wicket-taker of the tournament.
He claimed 20 wickets from 11 matches that riveted the fanfare towards him, with the fans claiming that if he can harness this brilliance, he will definitely be Pakistan’s next big thing.
Barring cricket, there has been another hellacious reason that Dahani has grabbed the limelight. Rumours have been flying hot where the erstwhile English Women team’s captain, Sarah Taylor has wanted to marry the young Pakistani fast bowler.
Going by the canards, Taylor has been stumped by the Pakistani fast bowler’s meteoric ascent and his down to earth nature. That is why she would like to spend the rest of her life with him.
Taylor is one of the finest batters in Women’s cricket and rumours of her proposal fanned out like fire. Netizens were absolutely awestruck and started cooking countless permutations and combinations. Sarah is still to confirm anything about this hearsay but Dahani came out in the open.
This is what Shahnawaz Dahani had to say about the proposal
During a recent conversation, Shahnawaz Dahani seemed to be in a jolly good mood and he came out in the open about Sarah Taylor’s alleged proposal. When asked if Sarah really proposes in front of him, what would be his reaction, he commented that the world is one hope. In fact, he also alluded to the fact that he would say a yes.
With all said and done, and with Dahani’s reaction to the rumours, it will be fascinating to see what will be Sarah’s take when she is faced with the same question.
Dahani has been called up to represent Pakistan in their upcoming tour of the West Indies. It will be a two-match Test series and only time can tell whether the impressive showdown in PSL be enough for this young man to make his international debut.
