Brought up his third first-class century in the Quaid e Azam Trophy match against Northern at Multan.
 
At Multan Cricket Stadium, GFS Sindh had reached 403 for seven against Northern’s 374. Saad Khan, who started the day at 88 in his side’s 133 for three, was out after scoring 123 from 192 balls with 13 fours.

Saad put on 59 runs for the fourth wicket with Asad Shafiq (82, 12x4, 124b), who added 102 runs for the sixth wicket with Mohammad Suleman (67, 8x4, 166b). Suleman was involved in another 102-run seventh wicket stand with Mohammad Hasan, who was still at the crease on a well-played 95-ball 73 with 10 fours.
 
706 runs at an average of 64.18.

2 hundreds and 5 fifties.

Impressive numbers.
 
What a match for him today, creating a chance for Sindh team. I have seen him bat in last season and he is a serious talent. Performing better than likes of Fawad and Saud is no joke.
 
Watched some of his batting highlights and he looks like a real deal.

63 not out batting at the number 6 position.

Should be batting higher up.

Looks a fine batter.

Where is Saad Ali ??
He hasn't played not a single match in this Domestic Season not even 2-XI.
Has he left Pakistan or is he injured.
Where is he?
 
Have seen him play another young batsmen who looks impressive. Scores tough runs too.
 
4th FC 100 for Saad Khan, in QEA today

At times he looks decent and then he looks really iffy. He has a range of shots but looks around the off stump and therein lies the tradeoff. Def one that could develop as a number 5, but too many variables still undecided
 
I saw atleast a dozen of players on PP every year who were claimed to be a world beater but in reality they were not even good to score vs associate teams. I haven't seen this guy play but even I had seen I would not claim him to be another batting sensation untill he has actually score runs on consistent basis vs top nations in all conditions.
 
In the 4th round of President's Trophy 2023-24, Saad Khan notched up a century 104(133) for HEC in the 2nd innings against Ghani Glass, marking his 5th century in First-class cricket.

It's truly heartening to witness a talent hailing from Hyderabad emerging and excelling in red-ball cricket for Pakistan.
 
On Day 2, Saad Khan missed his century, but his 91 off 115 in the first innings against SNGPL helped HEC reach 257 (all out) in the seventh round of the President's Trophy 2023-24.

These are highlights of his impressive innings.

 
Another great game from Saad Khan. He scored 57 not out from 62 balls for HEC against PTV in the President's Cup 2024. His footwork was really good, and he didn't lose his wicket while chasing. If we look at his consistent participation and performance in domestic cricket, he will soon make it to the Pakistan team for ODIs as a middle-order batter.
 
Sui Northern Gas Pipelines’ (SNGPL) Saad Khan struck his sixth first-class century to steer his team out of crisis against State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on Monday at the NBP Sports Complex, Karachi. He scored 117 today on Day 1 of Round 3 of President's Trophy Grade-1, 2025
 
Him and Sulaiman another hyderabad boy looks the best prospects to me for middle order
