Hasan and Abrar have the same date of birth and Shadab is just 12 days older than the two. All three have looked very good in the PSL , Abrar unfortunately got injured but I am sure we will see more of him in the domestic cricket. I would love to have one 18 years old fast bowler but I am really happy that we have some young talent coming over. I hope we will see some more of talented teenagers in the next PSL as well.
 
More than spinners or spinning alrounders. We need batsmen and fast bowling alrounders.
 
I know it sounds strange, but if Hasan Khan can transform into a medium pace all-rounder that would be great.

Well Lets Hope we start getting some real soon but its good to see young talent coming up especially Abrar Ahmed who probably would never have played a televised match.
 
Misbah's been backing Shadab so he might be good. Haven't seen him so can't say personally.

Either way, we need LOI class batsmen and have found nobody! Just Umar and Kamran showing they're the only ones capable.

Umar scores in PSL:

0, 35, 0, 25

Kami scores in PSL:

88, 0, 3, 0



Akmal fans logic is to spread as many lies as possible so that people start believing them. Blatant lying.

You won't get it. You watch cricket on spreadsheets and are unable to judge players for formats.

KP scoring 0. 0. 3 doesn't mean he's bad. Or that Billings is not the bat for LOIs.

Malik is 2nd highest scorer. Guess you're the kind of guy who wants him, Rizwan etc in LOIs.

Hahaha so Akmal brothers must have looked really good scoring those ducks. Why score runs even when you can 'look good' while scoring ducks.

Poor Fakhar Zaman all those runs that he has scored to be the top scorer Pakistani, should have taken a leaf out of the Akmal brothers' book, should have scored duck after duck but made sure he looked good in the process.

The whole "looks older than the age" notion is a farce that used to be true for those born in the Afridi generation. But with the computerization of records, and the new procedures being applied to verify age in U19 selections, people should give this self-loathing practice a rest.

I usually skip Hawkeye's posts, the level of quality is unbelievably bad.

Both Akmals should be nowhere near the team. Kamran averages almost as much as Afridi now. Proven failure.

Not again, people calling for the recall every year. Move on, give others a chance.

Yes I agree and plus these guys actually look under 19
 
Usama should be considered along with Hasan and Shadab :inti
Shinwari looks alright too, have to work hard though

Lol nice way to attack Malik. Umar is a PROVEN failure at the international level, the last few years, his average is something in the 20s IIRC. Malik has played well, Umar as failed like he usually does.

LOL yeah backing him by batting him at #9, below the likes of Sami and Imran Khalid.

Misbah's only picking Shadab because he's forced to due to the emerging player rule. Don't be blind.
 
More important concern is why we are not seeing 17/18 years old fast bowlers anymore??...Last PSL, we saw way too many spinners, this time too...Is that country has gone even more poorer, that kids cannot be fast at that age, they don't have enough to eat?? - Or Pitch are so bad, that you don't have to put extra energy to be noticed at any level, spin or military medium is good enough, why work hard?? - Another side effect of this change is that these guys don't have strong body, specially upper body to muscle the bowl, means no hard hitter coming through the system either...Power is sucked out of the game, opposite of what we need :facepalm:

I think its the combination of both, there is series of issues with our domestic setup, product coming out is not that exciting to say the least :((

Hasan looks promising he should feature in upcoming emerging cup !!A good utility player he seems!Can bat bowl and his fielding is good too
 
Very impressed again with Hasan Khan today.

The Quetta bowlers being hit to all parts but he bowls a very tidy spell of 4-28-2
 
Irfan jnr should be added to this list. Agree with [MENTION=141557]Chief Destroyer[/MENTION] that he's a good talent.

really? still srying on akmals????? umar akmal is the worst thing to happen to pak cricket in last decade..he has thrown away soo many matches.. its unbelieveable.... and we still praise him... in the psl so far, he has not played a single innings where we could say that he is there to stay and play long.. every second he looks like he is going to get out... and its pathatically shameful

this 'looked good' and 'looked bad' nonsense has killed Pakistan..

Fawad Alam is the most prolific scorer in Pakistan history, but he doesn't 'look good' so he never gets a consistent run

Kamran and Umar have their typical 1 in 5 good innings, but they looked good- lets recall them yet again for the millionth time

Misbah's only picking Shadab because he's forced to due to the emerging player rule. Don't be blind.


perhaps if Shadab was 35+ years of age he'd get more of a chance with the United
 
Remember being impressed by Hassan Khan in the first couple of PSL seasons . . HIm and Mohammad Nawaz . .

Why hasn't Hassan Khan's career progressed? Just seeing him in this tournament . . THe guy looks like a decent bowler . . definitely a better lower order batsman than Nawaz and a gun fielder . .
