Future role in Pakistan’s men’s team

In away conditions, he projects as an attacking option when partnered with disciplined seamers and fellow spinners.
The next step is durability, holding lengths into long spells, controlling run flow against left-handers, and sustaining pressure across sessions.
If he checks those boxes, Abrar can cement a first choice role across formats.
Leading spin formation for Pakistan in Tests, operating as a middle-overs enforcer in ODIs, and offering wicket-taking bursts in T20i’s.
With fitness and tactical backing, he has the tools to become a mainstay of Pakistan’s spin attack.
