Wahab Riaz comes from a privileged background. He studied at Aitchinson College, the prestigious, 129-year-old all-boys school located in Lahore, where the motto is Perseverance Commands Success. He was an enthusiastic swimmer and hockey player at school, and has grown into one of the worlds fastest bowlers, defying many barren pitches with his fury and adding a layer of raw menace to Pakistans bowling attack.His numbers - he averaged 34.66 before the Sharjah Test - dont quite do justice to his ability, and ever so often - such as during the Trent Bridge ODI in August, when he conceded 110 in his 10 overs - he can have a horror day. But while all that inconsistency might prevent him from being a great bowler, he is undoubtedly a bowler of great spells.On day three in Sharjah, he sparked another Test match to life just when it was drifting sleepily along, and just when the contest was slipping from Pakistans grasp. When he began his second spell of the day, West Indies were 311 for 7, leading by 30, and Kraigg Brathwaite and Devendra Bishoo had added 48 for the eighth wicket. Brathwaite was batting on 129.Brathwaite and the lower order could have extended the lead into truly uncomfortable territory for Pakistan, but that didnt happen. Wahab pinged Bishoo on the helmet with a bouncer before getting him caught behind in the fourth over of his spell. Then, in the space of 17 more reverse-swinging balls, he dismissed Alzarri Joseph and Shannon Gabriel as well, leaving Brathwaite stranded on 142 and limiting West Indies lead to 56.Wahab finished with figures of 5 for 88. It was only the second time he had taken a Test-match five-for.Its a good batting track, and obviously ball wasnt doing that much so we had to make plans for specific batsmen, but it didnt work, Wahab said at the end of the day. So we had to return to basics, and thankfully I finally got the reward.Yes, the five-wicket haul came after a long gap, but if you look, my debut match was in England and since then I have played major chunk of cricket in Asia. Pitches here arent sporting for the bowlers and you have do something unusual to take wickets, so I am happy with my progress and satisfied for fulfilling the teams plan.Wahab was returning to Pakistans attack after the team management rested him and Mohammad Amir for the second Test in Abu Dhabi in a bid to manage their workloads. Wahab said he had no issue going flat-out in the heat of the UAE, since it was his job to try and and coax life out of the slowest pitches.As far as workload is concerned, I know its really hard and I might be putting extra strain on my body, he said. But see, this is why I am representing Pakistan, as I am meant to give it all I have. I have a role to defy the pitch when other bowlers are not able to get something out of it. I am working hard even though it takes a lot out of me, but I am fit enough for this and I am happy playing such a role.Wahab said he was developing a good chemistry with Amir, his partner in left-arm pace.Obviously there is self-belief, and the trust has started to build up and we both communicate with each other regularly, Wahab said. Sometimes we as bowlers get frustrated and the other bowler comes to you and gives better advice. So we are sharing thoughts and applying each others tactical advice against batsmen, and its a good thing as a bowling unit.In the last hour of the day, Pakistans batting wobbled; they lost three wickets in the space of 17 balls to Jason Holder before their captain Misbah-ul-Haq fell playing an aggressive shot against the offspinner Roston Chase. It left them four down while still trailing by eight runs, before Azhar Ali and Sarfraz Ahmed saw them through to stumps with an unbroken stand of 39.Wahab said such things were part of cricket and it wouldnt be fair to blame the batsmen.Its cricket and it happens sometimes, he said. We are all working hard to win this Test match. I think somehow as batsmen and bowlers we lost our concentration for a while, maybe thinking that we will take back control and manage the situation. But we didnt execute well and we didnt capitalise, and lost our way. So I admit we made mistakes and it happens in cricket. Cheap Mens Adidas NMD Shoes .

ATLANTA -- Braves shortstop Erick Aybar has been traded to the Detroit Tigers, clearing a path for Alanta to call up top prospect Dansby Swanson.Swanson, the No. 1 overall draft pick of 2015, will be in the lineup at shortstop on Wednesday against Minnesota in his major league debut.I think that Dansby is going to be able to handle it mentally, said John Hart, Atlantas president of baseball operations. Hes not a kid that if he comes in and really struggles right out of the gate that its going to affect him. This is a kid that finds a lot of ways to help you win games other than maybe what he does with the bat.Atlanta received infielder Mike Aviles and catcher Kade Scivicque in Tuesdays trade.Swanson, acquired last December in the deal that sent starting pitcher Shelby Miller to Arizona, has split the season between Class A Carolina and Double-A Mississippi. In 127 games in the minors, Swanson is hitting .277 with 10 homers and 66 RBI.Aybar gives the Tigers experience at shortstop as Jose Iglesias recovers from a hamstring injury. Aybar is hitting .242 with two homers and 26 RBI and is making $8.5 million in the final year of his contract.This is something that came together in the last 24 hours, Atlanta general manager John Coppolella said. I think they had some injuries and had a need open. Were trying to get better and younger. We feel this trade does that for us.Atlanta acquired Aybar last November with minor league pitcher Sean Newcomb as part of the trade that sent Gold Glove shortstop Andrelton Simmons to the Los Angeles Angels.Aybar, in his 11th big league season, was in the starting lineup for Tuesdays game against Minnesota but was removed after taking batting practice and replaced by Chase dArnaud.Tigers general manager Al Avila wanted to make the deal because he values Aybars versatility as Detroit tries to stay in the AAL wild-card race.ddddddddddddHes a switch-hitter, Avila said. He can play short. He can play third. He can play second. Really, if we needed him to, in a pinch, if we had to -- and I hope we dont -- we could throw him in the outfield. But right now he gives us an experienced veteran-type player that we feel will give us a little better offense than, lets say Aviles.Aviles, 35, hit .210 with one homer and six RBI in 68 games with the Tigers.Scivicque, 23, hit .282 with six homers and 41 RBI in 105 games for Single-A Lakeland. Before acquiring Scivicque, the Braves had no significant catching prospects in their minor league system.Scivicque was ranked as Detroits No. 20 prospect before the season by MLB.com.Weve said this is probably our biggest area of need, Coppolella said. We dont have young, upper-level catching. Weve been trying to find it. Hes a good player. Hes a fourth-round pick. Hes got off-the-charts makeup, too. We did a lot of work on him. Hes a great makeup guy. Can really lead a staff.Detroit recalled outfielder Steven Moya from Triple-A Toledo to take Aviles spot on the 25-man roster.Coppolella said second baseman Ozzie Albies, the Braves No. 2 prospect, will stay at Mississippi for now, but could be in Atlanta soon.Albies moved from shortstop to second base this year so the Braves could watch him play alongside Swanson. But at 19, Albies is three years younger than Swanson and needs more time in the minors.Well kind of go day by day with him and see how it goes, Coppolella said. Hes got a bright future. It wont be long before hes up here soon, and therell be a lot of good, young players following as well.---Associated Press freelance writer Dave Hogg in Detroit contributed to this report. ' ' '
