Whatta Find. Some exquisite bowling performance.
And now making his bat talk.

Could easily bat higher up in the order instead of some of the rubbish United have had.
that fact Ammad and Shadab managed to break through Misbah's Chacha love show that they both have serious ability.
Amad doesnt look international material.
Shadab on the other hand is ready for international cricket.
not yet but he bowls at a good pace and hits it clean, definitely a player there
Pakistan should really look after Amaad. He IS international quality imo. Being an actual FAST bowling all rounder, He can be a test match prospect if developed well.
He better be in the squad for WI.
Ok lemme ring my pal Inzi
Is he actually quality or just excited because of a couple of good performances?
Haven't seen anything to comment, asking for some opinions. He's a leggie AR who can bat a bit?

Just looks better and better doesn't he.
Looks a fine talent. Hopefully he will be handled properly and his talent allowed to develop.

Amad Butt strictly looks average.
The lad has it all, just hope that money and expectations dont destroy a real talent. Usama Mir is decent but not in the league of this young man, i hope both develop to push each other to world heights.
Amad on the others side is more of a powerful striker
What I really impressed about him is that hes got some serious power in his shot even his mistime shots were clearing the ropes.

^Compare to what we have at the moment , he is a strong dude.
I doubt he is stronger than Sarfraz Ahmed, Mohammad Hafeez, Imad Wasim and Shoaib Malik.
It's just that these players are selfish and Shadab is not.
He is 19. You can't expect him to be very strong at that age. Perhaps a couple of years from now he will be stronger.
Some people think Shadab needs to be inducted ASAP as the middle order slogger.![]()

Yes, you have given an excellent clue to Inzamam. Now, Shadab can work on his muscles for few years, while Inzi will keep MoHa in team till 2020.
At 14, our Ashraful (actually around 17), 5'2"; 55kg - lofted a Srilankan spinner over Mirpur sight screen in a club match before being called to A team. These power, experience, muscle ... are absolute bull sh!t, just to protect the MoHas & Ajmals & Guls & Misbahs & .... to keep them in team. More than power, cricket (batting) is a game of reflex, hand - eye coordination, eye sight, timing & balance - it's universally true that at 20, you are physically in better shape than a 40 years old in those attributes.
Kick those oldies out and bring Shadab, Mir, Asghar, Saud, Saad, Sameen, Mudassar, Fahim, Gohar ............. and play them in real match - 3 months' time they'll have the experience & best part of 20 years to build on their skills. These kids will understand in a month or two of International cricket, what they'll need to do to survive there for a decade - those who can live up to that level will survive, others will be replaced by next batch.
After 1/2 decades being there, now MoHa, Misbah, Afridi, YK...... know what they need to do to drag their career for few more months - hence we come to ideas like settling score with Styen, retiring on high, proper sent off, being selfless ........
Forget Shadab, Usama or Gohar has better celling now than MoHa ...... with bat.

You are talking about gift of timing which Ashraful had and it seems Shadab has too. But that is different than sheer power of a gayle or a pollard. I was saying shadab, at 19, could have the gift of timing but you cant expect him to be a powerful hitter like gayle who could muscle the ball out of the park. He is too young for that.
Also I didnt say that he shouldn't be selected. Imo He should be in the LOI team as a leggie first and then as a batsman.
overused his googly last night
He better be in the squad for WI.
I'd like to reiterate this point.![]()
That googly to Babar.. Man that was crazy..
its the skills he has shown
When its comes to bowling he has an oustanding googly
In batting he was easily getting singles and running hard. When it came to hitting he showed he had both clean hits but also could improvise like ramping the ball for 6
Should be in the limited over squad of pakistan team touring west indies.

Cheeky way of putting Sharjeel there![]()
I don't want to get excited, but everyone is talking about him now as being an eye turner.
I won't get excited though. Happens too often. Will have to wait until I see at least 20 international innings.
in last 6 years I have tipped three players to become superstars
Sarfi --> as captain and as a package
Babar --> as odi bat
Haris --> as test bat
I think Shadab is a potential superstar as allrouder .. just needs to see a bit of him in internationals now, hopefully he cope with the pressure
Potential is certainly there, hopefully he works hard and stay focused.. come on boy!
Him and Asghar are the two most exciting talents to have emerged in the two seasons of PSL. A bit disappointed that both are spinners though, it's been two years but we are yet to see a young batsman who looks ready to make the step up to international cricket.
[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] I was looking forward to Khushdil from PZ but they did not play him instead even went for someone like Iftikhar.
Anyways Shadab looks pretty good batsman as well, Gifted timer.

He should replace Hafeez now. Can't do worse.

Do you think they'll pick him in the play offs?
Hafeez is gone, Looks totally shot.
