SADAF HUSSAIN - Have you heard the name?

[shining eyes]

I have been following this guy for quite some time now. This guy is has AWESOME stats even better than Muhammad Amir or Junaid Khan.

He is 26 and can anyone tell me why is this guy ignored so badly when guys like sohail khan can get a chance why not this guy???

Check out his average 18.68 with 300 wickets in firstclass? these are some great numbers!

I am going to make a page on his name and advertising to spread awareness lol!

Compare him with murlitharan: I know they are not the same league bet you got to appreciate the guy... being a fast bowler having this kinda awesome average is some milestone!

Why dont you ask PCB on twitter ?

And yes you're right, he should get a chance. Same goes with Mohammad Abbas, who currently are second in the ongoing First Class tournement. Same goes with Fawad Alam, whom I think should have been part of our Test side long time ago, but that's probably something we just cannot understand, what's going in the minds of Inzi and PCB Selection committee.....

Sadaf once said, that he was considering moving to UK to play county. I think that's his destiny now....

Doesn't mean he doesnt deserve a chance!

he was not even the part of psl. check his recent performances. not much wickets against weak domestic batting.

In 6 matches he took 22 wkts, with an average of 23. FYI

When there are three brothers playing in same team, then we should know how clear is the selection process.
Yes I am talking about Akmal brothers.

Dear Shining Eyes , I am glad your eyes caught Sadaf Hussian! He is a rare talent and I am also looking at his performance since his first ever first class match some 6 years ago. Then he was only 20 years old and I was amazed how quick he was taking wickets in both First class as well as List A domestic scene. He was picked up once in Pakistan national team for tour and I think it was probably year 2011 and destination was West Indies but he came back without being tried even in a single match and continuously been over looked since.

He is 6 ft 5 inches tall , left arm medium pace bowler from Chakwal and play for KRL . No doubt his speed is on slower side but his accuracy is canny and if given a chance could have been in class of Mohammed Asif or Stephen Finn of England . But as we know the pathetic selection process of Pakistan this rare and amazing talent is being wasted . Not only that he is loosing his motivation but also become injury prone and this has resulted in drop in his performance in current season.

By the way for those people who argue that he in not even in PSL then my answer is that his style of bowling is not suited for T20 at all and do not judge his talent on this yardstick. He is more suited for longer version of game like Test and 50 over limited matches and his average speaks for itself in both formats.

Now he is already 26 and in Pakistan any fast bowler after this age start loosing his venom but in my opinion even if he is picked up now he can be effective for at least 6 more years and can be regular member of test team . If I am the selector I would regularly play him in test team along with Junaid khan and Imran Khan and save Mohammed Aamir and Wahab Riaz for ODIs and T20s .

I am afraid that , knowing our selectors , they may bring Sadaf in late of his prime in same way they have done with Sohail Khan or Mohammed Irfan and just throw him out after few chances. We have lost so many highly talented players before and I will not be surprised if this happens to Sadaf as well !

Usually 2 close relatives can't work in same organization and here three brothers were playing in National team.

Come on dont be so cruel! Do you know a guy named Muhammad Asif? his Pace? And how lethal he was? No? Glenn Mcgrah? I am sure you dont cz if you knew you wouldn't have made such a may i say pathetic comment about pace!

Couldn't agree more! This guy deserves a chance for sure and our cricket board needs professionalism!

sohail tanveer

Besides Sadaf Hussain I also like to point out some new up coming fast bowlers who are currently doing well in Quaid e Azam Trophy . Please check Sameen Gul and Mir Hamza from UBL , Azizullah from SNGPL and Shahid Nawaz from Lahore Blues . Sameen is still 17 year old and others are also in 20-22 year age group so have potential for future .

Besides these youngsters I also like to point out two rather mature age bowlers one is Ali Imran of PIA and other is Nazar Hussain who is currently playing from Rawalpindi but is in actual a Balochi from Pishin and represent Quetta if his team is playing. Nazar deserve special attention because not only he is good and deserving but if he is selected even for a Pakistan A tour and get green cap it can be big morale booster to cricket loving fans of our restive province Balochistan . A good intelligent and patriotic manangement in any other country will always like to give representation to upcoming players from remote areas to create national harmony , however, in case of Pakistan this has never been the case !
