ISLAMABAD: Afaq Raheem, who could make his Test debut for Pakistan in the series against Sri Lanka, has idolised Saeed Anwar and Sachin Tendulkar since childhood. “I loved watching Anwar bat when I was younger,” said Raheem. “The best innings that I have ever seen was Anwar’s 194 against India.” Afaq also admires Tendulkar and is trying to model his game according to the Indian great. “The best thing about him is that he is equally comfortable off both feet. He never looks like he’s in trouble.”
