Short run up, awkward bowling action and a tall, barrel-chested strongly built man (he weighed 15 stone during his international career) that made him look like a Tarzan, in my opinion, he was one of the most difficult pace bowlers to play. I remember in 1981 Paki batting line up falling like a hay stack against him.
Quite often I wondered about him and didnt know he passed away. I guess he was one of a kind and very sad that he couldnt play for long. What a fearsome bowler was he !!!
