Is he this man close to 25? (Obviously he isn't 21). Unless he is more that 23/24, he has a good potential to be Afridi's replacement in future. But if he is older than that, probably the learning/improving curve has already reached the peak, he 'll not improve enough for International standards.
Kamran Ghulam will hopefully fulfill the role of lower order hitter and spin bowler. Though i hope his batting will be more Abdul Razzaq than Afridi
heard he balls a mix of off spin and chinaman

Guy has smashed an unbeaten ton to take his side to victory opening the innings at a SR of 100+
5 innings. 2 tons and 1 50. Also has t20 ton.
I hv endured the same
Grew a beard at 13 and a1/2 years of age.
When i was 16, a pathan middle aged guy asked me about the number of kids that i had lol
I am a punjabi too by the way
Hacks are good enough for t20Is a hack, nthing else. Will struggle to rotate strike and just a strong bottom hand hitter
Guys quit complaining about how old he looks. The amount of people who fake their ages in Pakistan is much less now. The Afridi/Razzaq generation was the last one that could do this. i've noticed that most Pakistanis, especially Punjabis like myself, tend to mature physically earlier. I had facial hair and a small moustache by age 13. At 14 people told me I looked 17. At 16, like Afridi, I had a full beard. At age 19 people thought I was in my mid twenties, the highest guess of my age that I got was 28.
There is a footballer for the Italian club Lazio who is African. He is only 17 but if you look at his face he looks at least 40. They even did blood tests on him and had a huge controversy over his age. Stop being so cynical. Many star footballers make their first team debuts at age 16-17. People who faked their age, like Waqar Younis and Razzaq, maybe Afridi, are all born pre-1990. Fake ages are much less common nowadays in Pakistan.
What else do you need in T20? T20 is the place for hacks. You want Technique Shafiq etc. to play in T20s? Sharjeel was wrongly dropped from T20s. He wasn't performing in ODIs and was dropped from T20s because of that. We need to understand that every format is different and in T20s, these hacks serve better than so-called technically correct batsmen.
Wait? He was an all rounder?
Pakistan need to arrange more A-tours, you guys wont know if these domestic bullies have actually got it in 'em until they play away and still perform consistently.
Haha.
Guy has clear ability yet people moaning.
First game top scorer.....

He's a hack mate, and a terrible one at that, was going with hard hands at everything with no timing or placement and obviously no technique.
Will not survive against better teams.
Worse than Awais Zia.Thats what u get for selecting a player after a handful of f/c matches
and how did others then make less than him. if he is that bad then others are worse
I think we can all agree that Sharjeel is the most reliable hack in the country at the moment.
Dunno Shahzeb sometimes looks very classy. He had talent but just never tried to become more than just a hack.
When azhar ali can develop, why couldn't shahzeb?

I didnt see the innings but i cant imagine that he was as bad as everyone is saying. Remember guys, it was his 1st innings at this level and he was probably very nervous.
I forgot about him actually. He's a good option for T20s as well, need to invest in either him or Sharjeel. Both have the same fitness and fielding issues though.
