During a podcast with former England skipper Michael Vaughan on Club Prairie Fire, Sharma highlighted the excitement surrounding Test matches between the two nations, recognizing Pakistan’s strong bowling lineup and formidable team.
When asked by Vaughan if playing Pakistan regularly would benefit Test cricket, Sharma replied, “I firmly think that! They work well together.”
He emphasized Pakistan’s superb bowling lineup and expressed interest in a competitive series, especially in overseas conditions.
Vaughan then asked if Sharma would like to see a regular series with Pakistan, to which Sharma replied positively, stating his interest in pure cricket and the excitement of a battle between bat and ball.
