Rehan Ahmed has a "big future" after stunning England debut as Rashid Khan comparison made

Former England spinner Monty Panesar believes Rehan Ahmed is a "huge prospect" with a "big future" after enjoying a dream Test debut against Pakistan.

Ahmed became England's youngest Test debutant at the age of just 18 years and 126 days when he played in the final Test in Karachi last month. And things could not have gone much better for the youngster as he played a key role in England's win, taking 5-48 in Pakistan's second innings.

And Panesar, who played 50 Tests for England and picked up 167 wickets, is a big fan of Ahmed. "England had done so well in Pakistan that they had a luxury Test match to have a look at him and he did really well," Panesar told Oneindia.
