[PICTURES/VIDEOS] Ihsanullah - Another promising pacer from KPK

Of course PCB is to blame (they always make a mess) but also the player here made some mistakes. We all know fitness levels of Pak (domestic) players are poor and way below Int standards. Ihsanullah burst onto the scene during PSL and like many Pak pacers started playing non stop T20 cricket where ever the chance came up. Greed is what plays a huge role here.
 
He needs to get himself a lawyer a sue the f out of PCB.

The only reason why he’s probably playing through his injury is because he’s probably a 28 year old with a family to support.

💯

Sue the hell out of this unprofessional and pathetic board

Playing with the livelihood of players
 
PCB destroyed an promising bowler’s career through it’s negligence and incompetence.This is nothing new.PCB has done this to numerous other players.It is a miracle that Pakistan team still quite competitive.If Pakistan had a proper board like England or Australia then it would have been one of the best sides.

May be or May be he didn’t recovered completely from the injury as he is still wearing that wrist band , BTW he did bowl one super quick delivery which hit Tayyab helmet and floored him down , easily 140k plus but on avg he is not bowling above 135k.

And most of these avg batters were clueless against his bouncers today which were not even quick that much.
 
one good thing about Ihsan is that be doesn’t lose much pace on his bouncers and short pitch stuff , his 135k bouncers comes much quicker to you than Hasnain and Shaheen 145 and 140k bouncers.

And when Ishan was fit and bowling 150k then his bouncers were even quicker than Mark wood 155k bouncers off the pitch.
 
Ihsanullah has joined the Peshawar Zalmi squad as he was previously seen in the team’s kit. His arrival adds an unexpected twist to Peshawar Zalmi’s PSL 10 campaign

As the 10th edition of the Pakistan Super League has arrived with unreal thrills, Peshawar Zalmi has given a massive twist before stepping onto the big stage. Even before their first match, they’ve made headlines by signing a Pakistani bowling star for the season, adding firepower to their squad.

Ihsanullah Joins Peshawar Zalmi Squad​

Pakistani bowler Ihsanullah is a big name in Pakistan’s domestic circuit. The bowler made headlines after having a blasting season in PSL 2023. After facing a long injury setback, his previous team, Multan Sultans, didn’t draft him for the upcoming season.

That move made a dramatic turn, as Ihsanullah announced his retirement from the tournament, but later on, he reversed his decision. But a speculation caught the air after fans spotted him in the Peshawar Zalmi kit and joined the squad. Now, the team has finally put all rumors to rest.
 
Ihsanullah speaking during an interview:

About not getting to play a single match in PSL:

“I’ve had a good journey with Peshawar Zalmi. I’ve played a couple of matches in PSL before and performed well. This year, although I was dealing with an injury, they still picked me in the Silver Category, for which I’m thankful. What you’re seeing now is the same Ehsanullah. I’m still bowling consistently at 90 to 95 mph, just like before. After the first three matches, Coach evaluated my pace—I was clocking between 90 to 95 mph, but it didn’t go beyond that.”

Sadly he is finished. Another talent totally wasted by useless medics and a board that doesn't know what it's assets are. What a waste
 
Such arrogance with a busted elbow? His career is going nowhere and he already played his last game for Pakistan.
 
Need to get his head down and concentrate on domestic cricket rather than making stupid statements.
 
Happy birthday to fast bowler Ihsanullah

He has represented Pakistan in one ODI and four T20Is, and took a wicket with his first delivery in international cricket

PCB did a good job to ruin his career.I don’t know his injury has affected his elbow or how much cricket he played after he recovered from injury.If he had been an English or Australian player they would have developed him into a good bowler.Let us see how he performs.This was his first match.
 
The fact he can still bowl 137k is not a bad sign, also with some swing. He’s obviously rusty. If he works hard and has the right support, no reason he can’t be a contender.

Structural limitations.... he has lost something foundational to what made him unique
 
The guy is always on Tiktok asking for money and playing battles with people. He's probably made a decent amount already and might get a hair transplant with it as he's already lost the frontal at the tender age of 23.
 
He went north of 140 and got awkward bounce on some deliveries.Looks like he still has some steam but needs to get his act together

He is mentally unfit. He will never make it

I have no idea about any of that, I’m just following his bowling.

From what I see, there is definitely something there to work with.

And even if he’s mentally not all there, a fast bowler with a screw loose may not be the worst thing in the world. It’s a heck of a lot better than the smiley guys and kiss blowers we have.

Screw loose ?

You need to see the video of him and where his hands were touching saim ayub .
 
He still has some pace and bowled some decent deliveries considering he's barely played any cricket last couple of years.

My question would be if he is healthy, why haven't PCB tried to get him playing in domestic cricket and rehab him to see if he can be 80% of the bowler he used to be. If he can improve his control, that would still give him ample tools to be a useful bowler with his height, pace & better control if he can get there. Disappointing how PCB treats its own player. Completing discarding them like they're worthless.

Lol Bro honestly, I don’t follow these guys that closely in their personal lives.

That does sound very weird, but I’m just judging some of his overs I saw.
 
When he made his debut I was very excited. It's an damn shame what happened to him. Is there any hope he can return back to this level?

 
This guy was the real deal. More than PCB, it is the unprofessional, fantasy culture that destroys players. They think that their body will remain intact under the delusion of youth as they get older , and then get a shock when it does not.

All the basics are haphazard in the culture, starting with diet, exercise, & sleep. Pak seriously needs cadet college life style for early childhood development. I am getting sick of seeing so many gifted people wasting their opportunities.

Imagine him and Shaheen bowling in tandem in test matches. Two 6'5+ Imposing figures coming at you. A scary sight for any opposition.

That’s not how things work anymore, protection means batsman will take on fast bowlers
Shaheens test stats are average ant outstanding
 
His first two overs in today BPL match were a delight to watch.

Beautiful swing bowling and even touched 145kph. Still has that lethal bouncer
 
He is back mashallah. i don't care about experience he is miles better than Rauf, Naseem and Waseem. Wow him and Salman mirza will make lethal combo! He looked very dangerous and had a great control which is a great sign. Before his injury, he was looking lethal like Akhtar, waqar and Wasim. Its unfortunate PCB ruined him but hopefully he can bring some of his magic back.
 
Dont think his body at this stage can handle the pressure of INT cricket. Classic exmaple of how to ruin a good prospect.

All the so called ex players with their big mouths on tv 24/7, but none of them does a thing.

This was a guy they should have taken under their wings and guided on all levels from training to diet.

Just hope for him he stays with and can earn some good money playing T20s.
 
Watched a few clips of him in the BPL, if the clueless management had any sense, he’d be wrapped in cotton wool & made to work in the academy with people who know what they are doing and put on fast track to return to the international level. His bowling still got zip which is a miracle in itself for Pak player returning from injury, there is no one else in Pak that can generate bounce like that at a decent chip. Certainly needs to focus more on his fitness & playing red ball cricket.

naa, he is a loud mouth with no brains and might be a pedophile.

I think PCB has decided to stay away from him.

Agreed, I am watching the clips now, I rated him highly based on the tools he possessed and saw him as a guy Pakistan could really work with closely & make him a regular member of the team. He barely has any experience, and hasn’t completely regressed post injury, there’s a decent ceiling here & gap he can fill in the bowling attack.

I don’t know about his personal life or the people he abused 1:1, but he’s the closest thing to say a potential Morne Morkel for Pakistan based on his attributes.
