Former Pakistan pace bowler Wasim Akram has praised the Pakistani fast bowling factory and said that a lot of good bowlers are coming through the system.

In an interview with pakpassion.net, Akram said that Mohammad Irfan deserved his chance in the national side and even Junaid Khan was a very talented bowler who had the ability to swing the ball both ways.

The former player also praised Junaid for his in-swingers to right-handers and said that when he was himself 23 years old, he had so much to learn, adding that the bowler will have to come out of phases where things did not work for him.
