[VIDEOS] Mohammad Hasnain : International cricket performance watch

What I like is we are spoiled for options as far as pace goes, all of a sudden. This will force Hasnain to improve his bowling by a lot, while I feel Sami never had that big a huge incentive both intrinsically and extrinsically.

I fully expect Hasnain to work on variations, including developing a better yorker and getting good swing.

I remember 2 years ago how much of a wow factor he had about him for his pace, as we hadn’t really had anyone in ages. At the time I feel he was a bit overhyped. He’s still very good don’t get me wrong, but it’s good he nows has competition and ultimately now that there are 3-4 bowlers with similar pace, the one with the best skillset wins.

Naseem, Hasnain, Shaheen, Musa, Rauf - this is a good pool of relatively young fast bowlers. Even Dilbar has 140+ pace and good skill.

Now it’s up to each of them to progress further. Hasnain needs to focus on becoming more skilled, not another Akhtar or Sami.

? Akthar was very skilled. He was just injury prone.

Definitely. I meant in the way that Sami tried to become another Akhtar too. If you watch Shoaib’s interviews he frequently references Sami’s obsession with pace and becoming a speed demon, which is why he never developed other attributes. That highlights a one-dimensional strand of thinking.

So yeah, Hasnain shouldn’t try to become a speed demon, is what I’m saying when I say he shouldn’t try to become an Akhtar.
 
Lee and Steyn didn't tried to become speed demon and just compare their success with Akhtar and M.Sami.

Akhtar had just amazing skills and was far above Lee and Steyn in terms of pure skills. But he didn't had much success as them.
 
Interesting analysis by Alan Wilkins on improvements to his delivery stride. In addition to his increase in out swing, Rauf learning the new ball, and Shaheen delivering lethal toe-crushers at will, Waqar has been busy.

Credit where credit is due.
 
As I said, good bowler, who has been improving. Pakistani fans need to have some patience.
 
Pakistanis bruv

If he guy doesn’t look or bowl like Dennis Lillee at the age of 19-20, they will never rate you or support you.
 
From the bottom of my heart,

Well done Husnain brother! The guy toiled so hard in that England series before the wc against Bairstow, Root and Roy where the PCB were clearly using him as a punching bag to make way for Amir and Wahab Riaz. Was kept in the squad without a single game and then dropped. He deserves this performance, and the best thing is that it has been economical. Clearly he has come back a lot stronger today

Pakistan fans expect these guys to become superstars by the age of 20, that's how foolish some are over here.

Pleased to see him perform well here, although its my wish that Pakistan develops him as an out and out quick, rather than just a hit the deck bowler.
 
His development with respect to fitness, accuracy and that out swinger with new ball was pretty visible in last year or so as I mentioned in the threads related to him. Still a long way to go and need to keep on developing but, good hardwork and direction showed till now.
 
Leading wicket taker in the PSL also. Definitely in the running for a regular starting spot now alongside Babar and Shaheen
 
5/26 today.

Hes my favourite out of the new lot. Though that doesnt stop me from realizing that he needs a lot of work before he can step into the test team. A full season or two in the QA trophy is a must for him.
 
Along with Naseem I am happy to see Hasnain persevered with, although neither are the finished article. Hasnain can bowl quick when he wants to, and he does get a bit of swing on it as well.
 
Hasnain was very good. He set up the game for Pakistan but they lost the plot in the last 10-15 overs.

There's a proper bowler in him. He has pace, a natural outswing and gets lift. He needs to learn to bowl in the corridor and develop a ball that comes in and he can be a proper test bowler.

He has the tools but it's up to him to figure it out.
 
So much hate for a guy who's young which is not needed.finally he got his chance in the team and performed well needs to continue to develop his skills and keep his pace up to around 90 mph

Exactly some if the hate I seen on this isnt good yes he isnt a finished article but he stil young and bowling at 90mph is more than good
 
Well done lad... Anyone know what's the pace he was hitting?

148+ was his highest and was consistently in early to mid 140s kph. Good thing is he maintained that in his 5th consecutive over in his opening spell as well as at the end of his 10 overs.

And now Waqar has given him the new ball! Credit where credit is due to Waqar, he’s doing some great stuff with these pacers.
 
You can actually see the progression with Hasnain. When he first came onto the scene his seam position was not good enough to wing the ball. Seems he's done a lot of work to get that outswing going. Also worked on his yorker.
 
He bowled well today, very well. I can understand some of his wickets were credit to batting quality, but he gave like 26 runs in 10 overs in a game that had 550+ runs; and he bowled 5-6 overs with new ball in power play. That actually tells he has got lots of control in his bowling - and it’s good for PAK team because of the left-right combo with new ball. Similar age, can form a pair for a decade.
 
As I have said earlier Hasnain has more potential than Rauf and Musa.

I’m happy he performed today! Well done.

Here’s hoping that Hasnain carries on like this.
 
Starts off where he left - seems to have taken a liking for Zimbabawe batsmen!
 
Surprised that he didn't get a chance in at least one of the 3 T20Is versus South Africa, perhaps in place of Shaheen Shah Afridi.

Pathetic should have started t20i series.He is 10 time better than haris rauf
 
Just when he has shown improvement he has been left out more often than not.

He clearly has developed a very useful outswinger and can be very useful with new ball

It's not as if Shaheen's that great or a must have in T20s. He's prone to getting tonked around as much as any other bowler in the format.
 
He is still a work in progress and didn't seem to be in rhythm from what i saw of him in the practice sessions.
He maybe fast but lacks the fire to be a good wicket-taker.

Needs to learn that art and the upcoming first class season is crucial for him.
It would have helped if he didn’t bend his knee that much.

He easily loses 5 kph and a couple cm of bounce and zip because of that.
If only we had good coaches to nurture these guys.
 
Excellent start from Hasnain in first ODI - needs to get some wickets now.
 
Run up looks a lot better and his action smoother.

Lovely first spell today against South Africa, shaping the ball away.
 
What were his speeds in the first spell? This one he is at 136ks consistently. Has Venkatesh Prasad been coaching him?
 
Kingpin786 said:
Fastest 148kph. Your phrase suits Prasidh Krishna
Click to expand...

Secnd Spell was at 136Ks. Prasidh thankfully doesn't seem to be coached by Prasad yet ( fingers crossed). And not that he touches 148+ anyways, he has other skills which will come to the fore soon(hopefully)
 
The kid fields like a 50 year old.

Really needs to improve on his fielding.

Yes hes awful in the field for someone so young Really needs to step this aspect up quick
 
Really impressed, always had the raw ingredients just needed some polishing. Needs to improve death bowling though, I don’t think his style of bowling is suited for death though.
 
Just let it slip in the last couple of overs where he got his length wrong and he went for 22 runs, but his first 8 overs were very good and he only conceded 30 runs.
 
Death bowling is about character as well as raw ability. He has to show he can close games out well before he can be rated as a success.
 
He only needs yorker in his armory to become a very good howler , currently he should be operating the new ball and come back after 25 overs , strictly leave him alone for death overs as he doesn't posseses even an average yorker.

nope he bowled many deliveries above 140 kph in his last spell. Yup you are right going over 10 RPO is the skill that only prasidh and saini can have
 
His natural length is too short which takes away bowled and LBWs out of the equation.

With his pace, height and natural outswing, he can actually become a lethal bowler if only he can pitch it up a little. Plus he is also shutting his front foot as Ian Pont mentioned.

It’s amazing the amount of pace he generates without even bracing the front foot. The thing is hel be so used to bowling like this is it too late to change without effecting his bowling? Bracing his front foot should add the very least add 2mph more to his pace
 
First few overs he bowled really well. Love the pace and out swing and definitely shown signs of improvement in the last couple of years. 3 glaring flaws and only due to inexperience
A) lack of Yorkers
B) lack of inswing
C) a bit erratic with line and length.

On the plus side has great out swing. I Imagine if he can consistently bowl on off/middle stump and swing the ball towards off stump he’s be lethal (provided a few balls can hold their line or move in) this ball was developed by Shane bond and perfected by steyn. Waqar not so much, so let’s see how husnain develops. Still so early in his career and has time to develop.
 
gazza619 said:
Yep, and it is the most obvious ball you would expect under Waqar’s coaching.
Click to expand...

Yes.

Got the length wrong and was bowling in the slot which was disappointing.

But overall he is definitely one of the bowlers who is improving and learning and that's a good sign.
 
There's been a lot of improvements since his debut and he looks like the type who will keep working hard to get better. There's been no over the top exuberance off the field, no obsession with having a signature send-off on the field and no constant social media updates which are common signs of players not taking their cricket seriously. I'm hopeful he'll have a great career, if he keeps working hard.

Yes exactly... hasnain was way better and good compared to Naseem Shah from what we saw..

hasnain's height is an additional bonus, where he can extract that extra bounce even on slow low pitches..

He must have had his test debut against Aus in Aus in 2019 instead of Naseem shah and Musa who are super raw to international cricket..
 
His fastest delivery in cricket is 155-156 Kph in Caribbean league.

am I right ?
 
Got it.

ED9oeKIWsAAX5a7.jpg


he is a special talent. I cant believe we have Rauf, Shaheen, Hasnain playing International side and Musa, Dilbar, Dhani, Daniyal, Wasim in domestic ... All capable of reaching and crossing 150 kph (in case of hasnain, Shaheen, Rauf) regularly.
 
He’s a great prospect. He will become a great talent with time. Babar should keep him in playing 11 for limited overs cricket.
 
He's progressing quite nicely however the same issue which is present in most Pakistani cricketers can be seen with Hasniain - a lack of game awareness and IQ.

He doesn't seem to have a plan when bowling and bowls without any purpose or setup. It's honestly disappointing to see considering the fact that he can bowl up to 155kph plus as the ability to move and jag the ball.
 
He definitely has something about him. Him and Shaheen should be our new ball pairing in LO going forward. He does need to work on his fielding. Seems a bit lethargic in the field.
 
He was debuted too early when he was not ready. But he’s definitely improved a lot since then. Still needs to work on his fitness and variations. He’s a solid prospect though.

He didn't had the stamina to play test cricket. Think Waqar said it in an interview then.
 
Still don't see the batsman being hurried like they should with a 90mph bowler. His seam is still poor and he doesn't look like getting decent players out.
