18 years old, lad seems to have some promise!
 
2 clever slower balls from the youngster for both wickets.
 
Smart slower balls. But how fast does he bowl? Can he play next u19 WC or will he be too old?
 
The Naseem v Hunani comparison

Nothing to really see. Another promising young bowler but no one would be talking about him if he wasn't Naseem’s brother
 
Stand by for a detailed profile of Hunain soon....
 
He doesn’t look any special.Let is how he progresses.We will know how good he is after he has played FC cricket for at least two full seasons.
 
Personally, I wasn't too impressed from what I saw in National T20. Seems to be very short & not all that fast either. He would have to really improve his skills and add a lot more pace to become International worthy.
 
I want some team to pick Hunain, Naseem, Shaheen, & Yasir as a bowling attack and the broadcaster to only show the last name (Shah) in the bowling card. Utter confusion and madness anytime anyone checks the bowling card.
 
After a long time, I have seen a young domestic pace bowler with a clean and smooth action that is well balanced, and all in one piece.

If he learns how to effectively swing, and york, he will make up for short height.

Already showing signs of some intelligence with those variations.

Wish him all the best.
Seems promising to me.
 
Let's hope we don't invest in more than he deserves. Looks very average with a poor action.

Run up is wobbly (Like Azhar Mehmood), but bowling action is pretty smooth.
Perhaps better action than any of those non-national pace bowlers that we saw in PSL.

FATA v Lahore Blues in QeA Trophy 2023/24

Lahore Blues won the toss and elected to field first. The Imran Butt-led team put up a dominating performance in the first innings and bowled out the opposition for just 140 runs.

Salman Khan Jnr was the highest scorer for FATA, with his 40 runs. Mohammad Wasim Khan’s 23 runs were the second highest contribution. Hunain Shah’s three-wicket-haul, two wickets by Hussain Talat, accompanied by a wicket apiece for Waqas Ahmed, Kashif Bhatti and Ali Shafiq displayed collective bowling success.
 
Another addition from Pakistan in BPL 2024. Hunain Shah this time. He is all set to play for Chattogram Challengers in this season of BPL 2024.

It won't be a surprise if we see him play alongside Naseem Shah in the national team this year.
 
Just 1 ball made him a hero.

Mohammad Hafeez speaking druing a TV show:

“Overall, Hunain Shah’s bowling has impressed me a lot. He has bowled in the right areas, but he needs a lot of improvement in his fielding. The match-winning shot he played shows that he has a passion for playing cricket and he wants to win the crucial moments. It seems very easy, but just imagine that it’s the last ball and the championship is at stake, and to hit the ball with the bat at that moment is very special. A guy comes at number nine or ten, and the whole match comes to that one moment, that one moment Hunain won.”​
 
I’m surprised that people are not talking enough about how undercooked he is and there are no nepotism charges in play here.

I guess it doesn’t apply when Babar, Rizwan or Sarfaraz aren’t the captains.

This guy finished 22nd on the list of leading wicket takers in spite of playing all but 2 matches and his fielding was a joke.

He was clearly not ready to be a regular feature in the first XI of a PSL franchise and he wouldn’t be getting this support and exposure if he wasn’t Naseem’s brother.
