Ian Bishop praises Aamer Jamal for his impressive performance on debut

Former West Indies pace bowler and commentator Ian Bishop praised Pakistan all-rounder Aamer Jamal for his performance during the first Test against Australia in Perth.

Aamer Jamal made his debut during the Perth Test and picked six wickets in the first innings to help Pakistan dismiss Australia for 487.

Jamal finished with figures of 6-111 after picking four wickets on the second day to wrap Australian innings.

Ian Bishop took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) and appreciated the all-rounder for his brilliant bowling performance with a post saying “That’s a test debut that Aamer Jamal won’t forget: 6 for 111.

Aamer Jamal during his six-fer became the 14th Pakistani player to claim a five-wicket haul on debut, while only the second to do so in Australia after Arif Butt, who achieved the feat in 1964.

Khurram Shahzad, who also made his debut in Perth Test also picked two wickets during Australian innings, which was dominated by David Warner.

Warner played a sensational innings of 164, laced with 16 boundaries and four sixes, followed by Mitchell Marsh’s quickfire 90 off 107, with the help of 15 boundaries and one six.

The Perth Test marked the first match for Shan Masood as the Pakistan captain while Khurram Shahzad and Aamir Jamal made their Test debut.

It would be a major challenge for Shan Masood as the Test captain as Pakistan sport a dismal record against Australia in Tests at the latter’s backyard.

Pakistan last triumphed against Australia in their home ground back in 1995.
