The guy is a mad hitter and played only 5 games for the national U16 OD tournament and ended up being the 3rd highest run scorer of the tournament with the most sixes in the tournament and his strike rate being 164.97 and average of 97.33 with the bat, he is head shoulders above any other batter at the U16 level currently and hopefully, we will see him in the next U19 worldcup as our very own Rohit Sharma

Pretty good talent at the U16 level , we have couple of all rounders one being Usman Khan who is the highest run scorer in the tournament with average of 125.33 and strike rate of 98.53 also happens to be good leg break bowler and end picking 9 wickets in 6 games at an average of 13.11 per wicket
Another pace bowling all rounder huzaifa ahsan who is the 4th highest run scorer averaging 66 with the bat and picked up 11 wickets in 7 games at an average of 8.00 per wicket.
 
Muhammad Rohan from Hyderabad is also very aggressive player striking at 111.15 with an average of 113.00 also he is the second most runs scorer in the tournament
 
Apparently he’s got a YouTube channel by the name of badshah cricketer , very good looking technique and absolutely destroys spin bowling , not afraid of advancing down the wicket against pacers and can play cut and pull very well which is very impressive.
 
Coming in early. I've seen so many of these threads for over a decade.

Let's start with his real age? Is it 15? 16? 17? 18? 20? 23?
 
Seeing his video and stats I can safely say he is easily the best batting talent compare to what we churn out in last 3 u19 worldcups , absolutely toys with pacers and hit them big while shuffling around the crease , seems to have too much time to handle pace and bear in mind those pacers where not super slow either seems to be around 120-125k as well.

Any videos of his batting
 
Looks like he has been discovered 6 years ago by lahore qalander as a 10 year old child. See his interview he doesn't look more than 10 so atleast his age is geniune 15/16.

A ten-year-old batting prodigy has impressed at the Lahore Qalandars' trials at Faisalabad.

Ali Hasnain Badshah who hails from Okara fulfilled his dream of playing cricket, after Qalandars' announced they will be taking the youngster under their wing.

Qalandars' CEO Rana Javed said, "He is good and confident and we will take him under our umbrella and provide him with proper training."

Speaking to Geo.tv, Qalandars' director of cricket Rana Javed said, there is no reason why this young boy cannot be trained to play for Pakistan.

“It will be a big failure of the system if the boy is not playing cricket for Pakistan in the next six or seven years," Javed said.

The 10-year-old was ecstatic with the support he had received from the Qalandars'.

"I am a huge fan of Hashim Amla and Brendon McCullum and want to be just like them," Badshah said.

He added, “I came here to show what I have and I am happy that everyone appreciated me."

“I want to play for Pakistan and I am hopeful that Lahore Qalandars' will provide me with the track to achieve my next dream,” he added.
 
It's good to see that this time we have a very good bunch of batting talent at the U16 level which was missing since last 3 U19 worldcups where there was no player to be hyped for. Some batter at U16 levels this year have crazy batting averages and strike rates which was not happening in previous national U19/16 tournaments. Lots of players to be hyped for this time.
 
If any of the PP mods have contacts with Lahore Qalanders management should remind them of him so that they can put forward his name for champions cup , he is definitely old enough to be playing domestic cricket and even 3 chances at the champions cup will be enough to assess where he stands right now against the big boys.

We are dire in need of good batting talent and no harm in given a chance to already established prodigy.
 
Strange that he is not part of the U19 team where as Usman Khan is selected , both dominated U16 tournaments and averaged close to 100 but Usman Khan strike rate was 98 and Badshah strike rate was 165 , This is plain stupidity from PCB selectors when we are in dire need of young aggressive hitter to flourish , The guy is naturally talented and if groomed well he can be an asset for our T20 side.

Have you seen vids of him?
 
How come he isnt selected in current under 19s. Maybe Saj can help.

Looks full of parchis the current crop apart from.the two openers no bat can bat nor bowl
 
He has power game for every length from both spinners and pacers and this is the most astonishing thing about him even if he get in to bad position due to his trigger happy feet he still slogs with full authority which is indeed a rare quality , He needs to premeditate a bit less even if he's got ample time to select his shots.
