[VIDEOS] Awais Zafar: Can he be the reliable batter Pakistan needs?

[FearlessRoar]

Awais Zafar, born on May 10, 2000, in Sargodha, is a right-handed batter who has steadily made a name for himself in Pakistan’s domestic cricket. Over the years, he has built a reputation as a reliable performer, consistently delivering strong performances with the bat. His ability to anchor the innings and play match-winning knocks has made him a key player in the domestic circuit.

As Pakistan looks to strengthen its batting depth, Awais Zafar’s consistency could bring him into contention for bigger opportunities. If he continues to refine his skills and perform at the highest level in domestic cricket, a call-up to the national setup may not be far away.

He definitely is talented and has a domestic record to speak of and should be included in Shaheen tours to SENA to improve his game against high bounce pitches.

Spin basher. Can easily clear the boundary

Can't play pace. Decent against spin.

Maybe suited to lower down the order

Can't play pace. Decent against spin.

That’s why he is averaging 44 in FC underprepared pitches where pace bowlers are averaging in teens?

 

[BouncerGuy]

Good player. Can play all around the ground. Some inside-out shots against Spin were nice. Keep and eye on him

Full highlights of his unbeaten knock of 87 runs. Dominated Spin for fun. Some great shots.

Those bowlers are bowling 120kph. I have never been wrong about a batsmen.

Need to see more of him but I am not convinced he has the game for international.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Those bowlers are bowling 120kph. I have never been wrong about a batsmen.

Even all PJL bowlers were bowling in 127-133k range so it’s not possible that grown ups FC bowlers are bowling at 120kph , at the very lowest they are bowling 130-135k for most bowlers with few of them touching up to 140ks.

Ok even against those 130kph bowlers he doesn't seem to have time. As I have said I need to see more of him, the little I have seen of him he struggles against pace which was even evident in this innings of his. Most of his runs came against spinners.
