Saw him in the Rising Star Cup.

Definitely has some pace.

How that Ghuari guy played ahead of Liaqat in the U-19 WC is beyond me.

He bowled with more pace than Sameen in 1 or 2 matches he played in Under 19 WC.

He had better physique too.


Did not bowl any 140 kph delivery though.


He might have added few kph by now.


I must say him getting onlh 1 or 2 Wc games was unfair.

Played for Faisalabad in Rising Stars. Good pace, bounce and very tight action. Gets the ball to seam.

Umar & Arfan

Umar look quicker of both how old is he

 

[Bewal Express]

Umar look quicker of both how old is he

Which was Umar?

 

[Anis10]

Which was Umar?

The skinny one

 

[Anis10]

One obvious reason why Arfan bowls quick compared to other under 19 players is because of his physique.

If other players bulk up and eat right then most of our fast bowlers would be start bowling in the 140s

Which was Umar?

The short energetic one.

If that was the case Umar wouldn't be bowling faster than him. How fast someone is capable of bowling can't be judged by their outside appearance, it depends on their body composition. If you're lacking fast twitch muscle fibers, you're always going to be a trundler regardless of diet, coaching, etc.

Arfan has pace because he has good mechanics and armspeed. Apart from that, his body movement is not really of an athlete. Ideal physiques for fast bowling are like Wahab, Wasim or Shoaib, Waqar. The former two are long, athletic and flexible and the latter two are sprinters, a bit on the shorter side but powerful and athletic. They all have muscle mass and fast twitch.

Can't say accurately. He was bowling on really dead pitches. Yes, former U-19 player. He's pretty young, 21-22 I think.
