Shakeel in his debut ODI scored just five runs. Playing in his second match, the left-handed batsman scored 56 and tried hard to take Pakistan close to victory. Shakeel bowls left arm spin as well and in the second ODI he chipped in with a wicket as well. Interestingly, Shakeel is not the first Pakistan cricketer to be linked to Kohli for his looks. Out of favour opening batsman Ahmed Shehzad was compared with Kohli for his looks as well.
