QAE 2020 will end on Jan 1st 2021. Balcochistan management will be hoping that Akif gets fit somewhere around Dec. All will depend upon how his body responds to the rehab process.
If it's Anterior Cruciate Ligament damage to his landing foot, 6 to 9 months, IF it doesn't need surgery .... if they put scalpel there, I would be surprised if the kid bowls one professional over in 2021. And, at this age with so little cricket if his ACL can't sustain, he won't last long as a fast bowler. Very sad news indeed, looked promising.
Okay thankyou but from what I know he wont he fit until January even if he doesnt require surgery

He had a surgery, looks like a successful one from the video. Hopefully can successfully come back to cricket in coming months.

It's better he sit out right now and recover properly. He wouldn't' gain much playing PSL anyways.

Karachi, 20 October 2021: Left-arm fast bowler Akif Javed has tested positive in pre-departure testing and, as such, he will miss Pakistan Shaheens’ tour of Sri Lanka. The 18-player squad will depart for Colombo on Thursday, 21 October.
Akif was selected for the three 50-over matches in Colombo, which will be played at the back of two four-day matches scheduled to begin in Kandy from 28 October. Due to paucity of time, no replacement has been named and the team management will have the option of selecting Akif’s replacement from the available bowlers.

2 wickets in 2 overs at 4 economy… far outperforming Mr Tye for Karachi so far. Ofcourse the greedy Imad was insistent on bowling out his own quota when the other team was on the back foot to pad his figures but only bowled 2 overs the other game when Karachi bowling was being decimated! Selfish captain who is correctly being kept away from the national side.

Hard to disagree with this. Imad is definitely a self-interested captain and deeply insecure about his own position.
Don't forget the way he kept Umer Khan out of the team when the kid looked like becoming something special.

Good point. But unfortunately this is common in Pakistan cricket as a whole. Sarfraz did the same thing trying to keep out Rizwan to save his own spot.
This is why it’s imperative that our captain of the national side is irreplaceable on merit like Babar,Shaheen etc so they are never withholding talent from the team in order to save themselves. A mediocre and toxic age fudger like Imad needs to be kept away.
Considering the injury problems he has had, he's not done bad in PSL 8 so far.
He doesn't look 100% fit yet but not far off.
I just hope he can stay fit and get lots of overs under his belt.
6 wickets in 3 matches, economy rate of 8.11 so far.

Agree again on this. If you recall, he ruptured his cruciate ligament because he landed awkwardly after his pronounced jump in the crease. He still has that jump, but I feel he’s a tiny bit apprehensive when he’s bowling, because of that injury. Once he’s fully mentally ok and trust his knee, he’ll begin bowling in Rhythm. And that’s when we’ll see what this lad is really capable of.

I have always had doubts about Akif Javed's consistency with line and length. He tends to deliver random deliveries and, in the match against Durdanto Dhaka in BPL 2024, he emerged as the most expensive bowler for Fortune Barishal, conceding 47 runs in 4 overs with bowling figures of 1/47.

I think Akif Javed has improved his game very much in powerplay against Panthers in Champions One Day Cup 2024, he was the beast, he has 2 wickets for 23 runs in 5 overs, but he has 5 wides too, which means he needs to control and make it better.

Most of these kids have raw talent but no brain. Hence we would see random brilliance with no consistency.
I think Riz is the kinda captain who could take Akif to the next level. Just like how Imran did with Wasim & Waqar.
On what basis can you make such a random prediction?! What has Rizwan shown you than he can take akif to the next level (like wasim and Waqar)

I dont want to write an essay but i am guessing you did not watch the game today,.,
Admittedly I didn’t. You are basing such a wild statement on one match? What did he do? Give him the ball and tell him to bowl well?

So I am guessing you have also not followed Rizwan’s captaincy in any of the PSLs.
Riz is the only natural leader Pakistan has who can unite the team and get the best out of them.
That’s fine, I’ve seen him captain at PSL and I’ve also seen others. I don’t see him as an outlier. But if you do believe he is - give me evidence for it.
And what had made him so special that you are saying he can replicate Imran’s handling of Wasim, Waqar and co.
I can respect your opinion. Everyone’s entitled to one, but for it to hold some weight, then some evidence please.

I think no matter evidence I give will hold no weight as it will be simply based on domestic captaincy performances and not international.
Haters will continue to hate no matter what. Time will be the best judge here.

Good to see him bowling 90 mph plus.

Solid bowler
I would pick him and play him against India in the CT. He will stun them.

There are some players which are picked on attributes and eye test he can be one of them
The success rate on these selections are dismally low. They should stick with domestic performers. We don’t need another “pace sensation” under the garb of “enforcer role”. First get heaps of wickets in domestics and show performance there
Sometimes you need to select a player based on talent and not just on stats . I think he deserves a chance at international level because our national side is filled with 125-128 km/g trundlers .
A player should always be selected based on talent. And the most reliable, most objective signal of talent is consistent domestic performance. Not what you, @Xoib or any “expert’s” opinion.
If pace is more effective than control and variation, then Akif Javed and other “pace sensations” should prove it by outperforming the so called “trundlers”. Since pace is so much better, they should be tearing apart domestic teams right. Why aren’t they.
What FC record our " Premier" fast bowlers like Shaheen, Nasim Shah and Harris Rauf have ?
Thank you. You actually provided support for what I am saying.
None of them have achieved anything in test cricket. They should have all played first class for at least 3 seasons to hone their craft and yearn for Pakistani cap.
Criteria is the same for everyone: wickets.
Lots of wickets. And then some more wickets. Whether you’re short, tall, quick, slow… it doesn’t matter. Prove you’re worth it at the domestic level first with a TON of wickets.
I like the look of Akif Javed. But he needs to prove he can take domestic wickets otherwise he will fail at international level because it gets harder.

Akif has had some good games but he could not keep up the momentum and goes from hero to zero in every other game. Overall, he is a good bowler but so far, international games are not within his reach.
Atleast Akif has 22 games under his belt the likes of Naseem and Shaheen were picked on less then 5 games
Don’t get me wrong! I really like the look of Akif Javed.
But he needs to get FC wickets. Heaps of them and run through sides. If he’s not doing that, then he needs to work harder till he can. Otherwise, international cricket is much harder and he is gonna get found out.
I am mostly with you domestic stats are greater then any eye test picks 9 times of 10 but some times you can take a punt especially if there is a missing link in your side and a certain player can provide that link no harm in trying for couple of games since there is no enforcer type pacer performing in our domestic circuit
Thanks for saying that. I agree exceptions should be made. Is there any evidence he’s shown the “enforcer” capability in domestic? Even for few games?
