Bangladesh all-rounder Afif Hossain

I just saw this 21 year Left hand Bangladeshi batsman in 2 T20s against Australia. I must say I am super impressed. Bangladesh has unearthed a gem and he reminds me so much of Rishabh Pant.

He is a star in the making and will win Bangladesh many games in the future.

Too early to say. Many such talents have come, and perished due to lack of consistency. I hope Afif will prove me wrong

Why wouldn't he? They have pretty similar strike rates in T20s.

Just checked his stats. Has already played 20 games and averages 17 with a strike rate of 124. In our part of the world this is nothing special.

Rishabh Pant is the best all-format wicket keeper batsman Asia has ever produced. It's an honor for Afif to be compared to Pant.

Ok those stats aren't good at all. I was basing my opinion on the way he played the two recent knocks against a good Aussie attack. Still very young.

He hasn't done anything big yet.

But, he has been more impressive than some other Bangladeshi youngsters. He should be persisted with.

He is the next Ashraful

Afif is actually a top order batsman who is being forced to bat low down the order. If he bats higher up he will do well

Hope he doesn't become another Nasir Hossain or Shabbir Rahman.

I like Afif's attitude. No arrogance. No stupid celebration. I hope it stays like that.

 

[Sher Khan]

This kid is very talented. Reminds me of a young Haris Sohail.

 

[gazza619]

Afif has looked the best Bangladeshi batter so far in the two T20s against Pakistan. He has thrown it away after two good starts though. This kid has talent.

Slight of build but packs a punch! [Sorry if I sound like Athar]

Impressive from Afif :

Both players hit their career-best knocks in the process to frustrate Afghanistan. Afif posted an unbeaten 93, his maiden 50-plus output, and Mehidy added 81 not out as Bangladesh raced to victory with seven balls to spare after Afghanistan was bowled out for 215 in 49.1 overs.
