Twirling fear for English players

Dubai: It's not the Pakistan spinners alone attempting to terrorise the England players; there is also a Pakistan fan sporting a huge moustache and twirling it at every England player.

Mohammad Zaman is a driver by profession but an ardent cricket fan as well. Wrapped in a Pakistan flag, he is everywhere… not only in the stands of the Dubai International Cricket Stadium during the Test match but also close to the nets in the practice area of the International Global Cricket Academy. He embraces every Pakistan player and showers them with his best wishes every time he meets them.

Though he twirls his moustache at the English players, he also seeks their autograph and asks them to pose with him for a picture. "Brother, one picture with me please," he requests them in his broken English. And they are seen sportingly obliging him with a smile.
