Akram 6'3, Misbah around 5'11, Waqar 5'11, Asif 6'4.

misbah definitely is taller than 5 11 , i was him in a first class match insialkot. he is probably 6 1 or 6 2

 

[Sledger]

He's not that tall. Probably 6' max.

Though I m very young to say I watched the Ws bowl together but when I watch their videos they look the about same height.

 

[Sledger]

Quite a big difference.

Both Inzamam and Akram are 6'3.

 

[FastBowler]

Though I m very young to say I watched the Ws bowl together but when I watch their videos they look the about same height.

They most definitely are not. Waqar is about 5'9 and Wasim is 6'4.

 

[JibranAnsari]

They most definitely are not. Waqar is about 5'9 and Wasim is 6'4.

he is 5 11

 

[Sledger]

They most definitely are not. Waqar is about 5'9 and Wasim is 6'4.

Waqar is not 5'9 lol, he's at least 5'11, maybe 6'.

Even Sami and Rana are over 5'10 and they're considered short fast bowlers.

 

[FastBowler]

You can see their heights here

[NJamal]

Wasim is not 6'4", I met him and I am 6'3". He was a couple of inches shorter than me.

Asif is 6'3, because his Italian persona is also 6'3.

 

[Atif]

Asif is 6'3, because his Italian persona is also 6'3.

[Markhor]

) Yaar my dear old Marsi Riaz is taller than that figure !

 

[Markhor]

Try 6'6.

I stand corrected,he was quite tall though,probably the tallest player we've had of the last few years.

 

[Sledger]

Yeah, probably only second to Irfan.

[Saad Hasan]

Yes, Wasim is 6'2"...I have seen him up close and personal on quite a few occasion at PIA's sports complex going back to when he first started playing for PIA around 1988...I was representing PIA as well, albeit in a different sport...

Shoaib Akther is kinda short as well...no more then 5'10"...

 

[abdulqadir786]

I don't think that asif and gul are 6'4", but probably around 6'2".

 

[Sledger]

Asif is 6'4.

 

[blinding light]

ajmal is about 5 ft 4

No noo.. I've seen Ajmal in real life, he's def. taller than 5.4"

I'm 5.8", I think he couldn't be more than my height. 5.7"/5.8" tops.

 

[JibranAnsari]

No noo.. I've seen Ajmal in real life, he's def. taller than 5.4"

I'm 5.8", I think he couldn't be more than my height. 5.7"/5.8" tops.

bht lambi ho

 

[alberto]

ajmal has to be the smallest in height

 

[Foozee]

Pakistani Cricketers height..

whos the tallest in the team?

it kinda pisses me off, they all look so short like Hobbits not representing Pakistan but the Shire

 

[shokz1408]

What the heck? what kind of thread is this..

 

[Foozee]

one bat to rule them all, doesnt have the ring..but probably throw the bat in Mordor

 

[Foozee]

What the heck? what kind of thread is this..

shugal

 

[Sharif007]

Some people are so excited about the world cup that they are literary losing it. The best batsman to ever play the game is short it hasn't effected his game so I don't think Pakistan players should worry too much. If they were playing basketball then you have the right to worry because you guys would be doomed then.

 

[Looney]

looks about 5'10
5'9
5'10-5'11
6'2
6'3
6'2
5'11
umarakmal 5'7
kami 5'5-5'6
ajmal 5'5-5'6
5'7-5'8
5'10-5'11

based on guess work

 

[LethalSami]

EPIC FAIL THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Height NOT Related to cricket....

some examples....subcontinent players............not tall but still great bowler/batters......

 

[LethalSami]

Don Bradman was how tall???? Murali?? Imran Khan??? Jonty Rhodes (best fielder how tall)??

 

[Foozee]

hahaha newbs and their outburtsssss

 

[shokz1408]

Sachin tendulkar is short, he is one of the best batsman around.

 

[Foozee]

looks about 5'10
5'9
5'10-5'11
6'2
6'3
6'2
5'11
umarakmal 5'7
kami 5'5-5'6
ajmal 5'5-5'6
5'7-5'8
5'10-5'11

based on guess work

so its the akmals who bring the average height down

 

[Looney]

Mohammad Irfan was 6'10 ? and we know how that turned out

 

[Looney]

so its the akmals who bring the average height down

it is guess work though but it should be close

kami and ajmal i believe are among the shortest

 

[Foozee]

Mohammad Irfan was 6'10 ? and we know how that turned out

was sad..so tall, but only bowler who doesnt know how to use his height..

he should become a left arm spinner like vettori.. imagine 6"10 spinner hehe the bounce he'll get

 

[octavian]

whos the tallest in the team?

it kinda pisses me off, they all look so short like Hobbits not representing Pakistan but the Shire

how tall are you?

 

[BDfanforever]

afridi is no where near 5'11.

 

[C++]

I don't think Fawad Alam is taller than 5 feet 5 inches. Asad Shafiq and Adnan Akmal are shorter than Fawad Alam.

 

[Foozee]

how tall are you?

6'1 mashallah..hehe

and tallest in my tape ball cricket team

 

[ddss]

misbah is atleast 6"2

 

[PakistanCricketForever!]

Mohammed Irfan 7"

 

[blinding light]

I don't think Fawad Alam is taller than 5 feet 5 inches. Asad Shafiq and Adnan Akmal are shorter than Fawad Alam.

Fawad is about 5.7" dunno about Asad but Adnan akmal seems pretty short... About 5.4' maybe?

misbah is atleast 6"2

Nope. Not that tall. Malik and misbah have the same height almost. 6 feet is my guess

 

[MC]

Afridi is 5'10? He looks quite tall in the field, but in that WC group photo, he looks pretty short.

 

[blinding light]

I think 5.9" and/or 5.10" suits him perfectly.

 

[Ummer Khan]

afridi seems to be stocky in the pix above...................

 

[Love 4 Cricket]

[Equinox]

Oh really? Is Kamran Akmal taller than Mashrafe, Shahadat, Zunaed, Riyad?

 

[Love 4 Cricket]

Oh really? Is Kamran Akmal taller than Mashrafe, Shahadat, Zunaed, Riyad?

Are they Taller than Gul????

 

[abdulqadir786]

how tall do you guys think azeem ghuman and hammad azam is?

 

[Fireworks11]

Hammad looks quite tall, around 6'.

 

[Equinox]

afridi is no where near 5'11.

How can you say so from that picture? He is standing next to really tall guys like Vettori and Sammy who are 6'3/6'4. I'd say Afridi is in between 5'10 and 5'11.

Are they Taller than Gul????

Mashrafe is about the same height as Gul. Shahadat and Zunaed are taller. And besides you said all Pakistani players are taller than all Bangladeshi players. And stop pretending to be a BD fan.

 

[attock]

Shabbir Ahmed was another tall player and so was Muhammed Zahid

 

[Poison]

Strong bump.

 

[dblock]

So a whole thread and some wild guesses, but no real definitive list of heights.
