If I'm not wrong their is not a single hit the deck bowler in Pakistan.

As Ahmed Shehzad said the pitches are to be blamed for the lack of such bowlers.
 
Mohammad Abbas is the one who hits the deck pretty hard but Shehzad was pretty right. The pitches in pakistan domestic cricket are aweful , low and damp.
 
I have seen him bowl this season at various grounds. His average speed is around 135 he is very underrated , from all the bowlers i have seen bowl this season he has been the best.
I've seen him bowl a couple of times and I can tell you he isn't international material.

Another Imran Khan type bowler who relies on seam rather swing. That is the only difference.

Can't be more inaccurate than this one , he has got both swing and seam going for him. He sets up the batsman pretty well and has the gift of seaming it a long way. He has the ability to hit the deck hard as well.

And I have seen him a lot of times to tell you that he is worth giving a go. None of the our current fast bowlers are international standard anyway. Barely hanging on to 25 average.

Wouldn't mind if he gets a go but I'm personally not impressed.
 
Atta ullah is a very good one.

Very tall guy with a high arm action.
Bowls around 140.

+Mohammed Irfan(Right armer).

Similar to Attaullah.
Tall+and has a high arm action.

Mohammed Abbas is more of a swinger type of bowler.
 
You have Imran Khan. But unfortunately he gets dropped, even after out performing everyone, lol. He is the next Glenn McGrath.
