Is Wahab Riaz a bad bowler?

[Kroll]

Even 7 years ago, OP has summed up Riaz perfectly.

 

[aukhan]

Bad? He is pathetic and i will not change my opinion about him at all.

 

[Hyperion66]

He has some skills just that too thick to be a fast bowler. One must have a certain amount of intelligence as a bowler.

 

[big_gamer007]

Highly inconsistent. He has capability to bowl great spells but those spells are very few most of the time he is wayward .

I hope this is his last match for Pakistan in ODI/T20 format..

7+ years later

I have a strong feeling we're going to see something special from Wahab again this year. I recall before the 2015 World Cup, Wahab was awful and most people were against him being a part of Pakistan's World Cup plans. Same thing happening this time round, let's hope we see 2011/2015 Wahab again.

Yes

He is a bad bowler, no doubt somewhere along the pages of this thread I have said it as well. But in these conditions, everyone is a bad bowler, so you need either spin, pace or brains to perform well. Also a temperament to perform in world cup pressure, so all things considered, Wahab comes out ahead of Junaid and Faheem on a couple of those requirements.
