"Rohit Sharma has the ability to play all types of deliveries, be it short ones or good length deliveries. His records speak for itself and picking his wicket would be a dream come true for me," Naseem told cricingif.com in a video interview.

The 17-year old also said getting Australia star batsman Steve Smith would delight him too.

"Steve Smith is very unorthodox in his batting technique and getting him out would be a delight for me. In the past, I have had the opportunity to bowl to him but picking his wicket would be a good experience, given his form."

Shah has so far played four Tests for Pakistan, taking 13 wickets.

Shah is part of Pakistan's squad which will play in England next month.
