Mohammad Hasnain - First bowler to hit the 150kph mark this season in PSL!

[Theo_14]

Congratulations.

Mohammed Hasnain clocked 150.52kph. So refreshing and exciting to see this.

A exciting prospect who has the potential to be a fine bowler for Pakistan. Any coach must be shaking with excitement to work on this project considering how promising his action is. A long way to go in terms of development and exposure. But he has the physique, the foundation to flourish at top level.

[ataullah]

Loving it. He said yesterday I'll hit 150. With a little work he'll add more pace

 

[Brilliance]

Congratulations. He can become faster. He's just 18 yet.

 

[saeed5646]

Just wow wow wow .

Exciting time ahead after number of trundles and brain less phast bowler wahab raiz

 

[Arham_PakFan]

And he's only 18!

He can increase his average pace by 3-5 kph if he works hard.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Finally a worthy successor to shoaib bhai

Harris, Husnain, Naseem, Musa and Ahmed Khan. Future of Pakistan fast bowling is in safe hands.

These and who was the other right arm fast guy in the U19 world cup last time? He was quick too. I forgot his name.

Add Shaheen too.

Edit : i think his name was Arshad.

What was Arshad pace?

Arshad Iqbal has played some games for Karachi already. Even though he was not totally fit he swung the ball and troubled the batsmen.

I still can't believe Arshad Iqbal is not in the PSL.

I don't think Arshad is as quick as Hasnain or Nasim. Low to high 130's kind of bowler.

I saw him bowl in 140s in u19 world cup. Maybe not as quick as Hasnain.

[Greenstorm]

What was Arshad pace?

He is not as quick as Shaheen or Husnain but he has other skills. A very good prospect for test cricket. Its a shame he is not playing in PSL.

 

[Theo_14]

His body fat % seems around 22-25. If he can reduce that through high resistant excercise/compound excercises than he will easily be quicker by 2-3 yards.

The good thing is he has good foundation in terms of built and bowling action. Just need the right coaching that will “enhance” his skills and not the opposite.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

I have watched him bowl he is a good prospect but can't remember his pace, is he 135-140k? Because it's minimum requirement for his type of seamer

 

[Greenstorm]

Yes he bowls at 135-140 which is quick enough.

 

[Slim]

Exciting times for Pakistan cricket in terms of bowling.

 

[Red Devil]

Get this guy in the team, he needs to work with the best coaches and trainers we have. Look at how Hasan's fitness improved after he joined the national team.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Should be sent to Australia like Rauf will do wonders for him.

 

[pakistani pride]

Has he arrived?
Has the next PAK express bowler arrived?

Get him in the national set up. Keep him away from the trash that is PAK domestic cricket.

 

[Snowflake]

What was his average pace like? One off deliveries don't mean much tbh.

 

[Pete Rose]

these are t20's where he's bowling one over at most before a rest.

Shaheen isn’t extremely quick to be fair. Hovers around the 140 mark but his pace will increase as he is still a young lad (despite his freakish height)!!

 

[Chief Destroyer]

It isn't just airspeed, he generates a lot of bounce. Hits the deck hard. Great prospect.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

When I first saw that small clip of him, I knew there was something special there. Just wanted to see him live.

sink in for what purpose?

reminds me of monde zondeki's bowling action....from memory. cant find any clips on zondeki on youtoube.

I see a bit of Sami with a Waqar like sling. His inaccuracy is due to lack of a complete follow through. They've gotta get him to complete his action towards the batsman. That's an easy 3-5ks right there.

yeah...but as you said in your earlier post...his shoulder comes through very strongly....so pounds the pitch as well = bounce.

Shaheen and Hasnain will be key if Pak wants any success in Australia this year. Good signs indeed.

What are your thoughts on Arshad Iqbal and Nasim Shah?

Arshad looked mature for his age and also moved the ball on flat wickets.

 

[moghul]

Express bowler are born , not made. In Hasnain Pakistan finally has an express bower.

Imran Khan was the only bower in the history of cricket who progress from a trundler to become one of the fastest in the world during his time.

 

[Bewal Express]

His seam worries me because it's very difficult to move the ball with a saucer seam. The saucer seam is ok for reverse but after the Warner banning, reverse swing has become very difficult.

 

[Bewal Express]

Just to add that like everyone else I am also excited about his pace.

Don't know about Waqar, but definitely see lot of Sami in him

They're quality prospects as well. NCA has done a really good job bringing them up. Credit to Mudassar Nazar. I've commented about them in their respective threads.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Don't know about Waqar, but definitely see lot of Sami in him

Not the action but the way he slings the ball. Waqar's arm dropped a bit whereas Hasnain is high arm. You won't see it from a front-on angle, have to see it from the side.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

His seam worries me because it's very difficult to move the ball with a saucer seam. The saucer seam is ok for reverse but after the Warner banning, reverse swing has become very difficult.

You can swing with an angled seam. Starc does it.

 

[SensiblePakFan]

finally, hopefully the can help him gain a bit more.

 

[Bewal Express]

You can swing with an angled seam. Starc does it.

But he has also struggled with a saucer seam. A seam angled towards 1st slip like Jimmy's is fine but a seam that looks like a saucer leads to very limited if any movement. Since the improvements in high Def cameras you can see that Asif and Sreesanth had the perfect seam in the not too distant past but more recently most bowlers have great seams, and those bowlers that don't struggle.

 

[Mueez]

Fast track him to the national side.

Will do wonders, mark my words.

Won’t do worser than Shinwari and Amir.

 

[aloo paratha]

You can swing with an angled seam. Starc does it.

So many people can swing the ball with wobbly seams, too many people have misconceptions about swinging the ball. Getting the ball to swing isn't that hard, controlling it is.

You can see many videos where Dale Steyn has the seam wobbling, he still is one of the best bowlers in the world.

[kingusama92]

Incredible pace for his age.

Could easily ramp it up even more in 2-3 years.

Too early to say. I haven't seen a lot of closeups of his seam position either. He's come up from the academy so he would've been taught swing from a young age.

 

[ElRaja]

whats also pleasing to see is that hes built fairly strong, more like a young west indian or aussie than the more wiry pacers pak produces normally.

also heartening to see another quality player emerge form hyderabad.

Looked to have put in hard yards while he was injured, definitely looks to have strengthen up and put on some muscle mass.

 

[wrongun]

Impressive.

Last guy I remember that quick at age 18-20 was Brett Lee !

Will be interesting to see what Inzi & Mickey Arthur do with him... Let him mature a bit or get him in around the team...

 

[hafizexpress]

Fast track him to the national side.

Will do wonders, mark my words.

Won’t do worser than Shinwari and Amir.

So you're saying that he'd concede less than 4 runs per over in an odi game and take key wickets here and there, that Amir does?

 

[Ahmed216]

He can shorten his strides a bit which should help his momentum in to the crease and increase his pace and also improve his control

 

[Bewal Express]

So many people can swing the ball with wobbly seams, too many people have misconceptions about swinging the ball. Getting the ball to swing isn't that hard, controlling it is.

Wobbled seam is used more to get some seam movement into the bat.

 

[Bewal Express]

You can see many videos where Dale Steyn has the seam wobbling, he still is one of the best bowlers in the world.

Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ukp7L4VHAQ

And when he wants a perfect seam. Dale Steyn uses the wobble as a variation

 

[Sher Khan]

Naseem Shah looks quicker than this guy, and this guy bowls 150kph!!!!!!

 

[aloo paratha]

And when he wants a perfect seam. Dale Steyn uses the wobble as a variation

Point is that the ball still swings. It's not impossible to swing the ball with a wobbly seam.

 

[Asif khan]

Naseem Shah looks quicker than this guy, and this guy bowls 150kph!!!!!!

Hmm anyone seen him bowl live? The YouTube clips look seriously impressive but it's difficult to judge them most of the time.

 

[Bewal Express]

Point is that the ball still swings. It's not impossible to swing the ball with a wobbly seam.

The ball doesn't swing with the wobbly seam, it sometimes moves off​ the seam. The best bowlers have great seams and the odd exception to the rule doesn't change the rule.

Please wrap him in cotton wool and keep him safe.

We don't want a nagarkoti case. Is he fit again?

 

[Sunny_majoka]

exciting times ahead... hasnain haris musa,, shaheen pak bowling future is in safe hands

 

[Syed1]

I'm in favour of taking one of Hasnain or Harris to the WC (or maybe both).... The pitches are going to be absolute batting belters with nothing for the pacers. On such a pitch you need bowlers who can take the pitch out of the equation and these gun pacers might be able to do that.

 

[Syed1]

whats also pleasing to see is that hes built fairly strong, more like a young west indian or aussie than the more wiry pacers pak produces normally.

Let's not talk about the last one

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Hasnain must play against Australia and must go to the world cup as well.

Pakistan cricket is done with 'grooming' and 'polishing'.

Pakistan cricket is all about raw, unseen fast bowlers unleashed on the world. Then come what may. That is how it rolls and that is the only way it will win.

 

[Brilliance]

Pace trio of Shaheen, Hasnain and Hassan Ali would be absolutely lit at the world cup in England.

 

[IAJ]

It isn't just airspeed, he generates a lot of bounce. Hits the deck hard. Great prospect.

Allah ka shukr hai Wahab Riaz sey jaan chutti, to see him top the speed table each year was demoralizing.

 

[ataullah]

Naseem Shah looks quicker than this guy, and this guy bowls 150kph!!!!!!

Looks quicker due to speeded up video and hasnain bowling 150 with minimal effort. Nasim is 140 to 145 max

Agree, that's way Imran Khan picked Waqar and Wasim Akram. When Pakistani fast bowler go through " grooming and polishing" they regress and their action is made to change by some "coaches".

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Allah ka shukr hai Wahab Riaz sey jaan chutti, to see him top the speed table each year was demoralizing.

Lol, he still might top it but it looks like he's lost a yard of pace. Not as quick anymore.

 

[Anis10]

Looks quicker due to speeded up video and hasnain bowling 150 with minimal effort. Nasim is 140 to 145 max

Mudassar Nazar said Nasim is the quickest of the young lot, so surely he would be able to bowl 150

 

[ataullah]

Mudassar Nazar said Nasim is the quickest of the young lot, so surely he would be able to bowl 150

That was when hasnain had just returned from injury and wasn't as quick as now. If Nasim was quicker than current hasnain surely there would be more hype

 

[cricketjoshila]

We don't want a nagarkoti case. Is he fit again?

See stress fractures in a growing young body of a bowler who is bowling close to 150k is expected and will happen.

Need is to manage it well so that ultimately he goes on to play for long.

Latest example is Pat Cummins.

Nagarkoti is apparently bowling in nets.

 

[cricketjoshila]

Any videos of him?

If I remember correctly, nagarkoti had a very nice action. So I’m surprised he suffered stress fractures. A very smooth action.
