Any Pakistani Cricketers currently you await to see them play no matter the format or situation?

Someone that actually gives you joy and hope when you see them play Cricket?

Currently for me it has be;

Fakhar Zaman
Saim Ayub
Hassan Nawaz
Mohammad Harris
Sufyan Muqeem
Abrar Ahmed
Khawaja Nafay
Sajid Khan
Noman Ali

There used to Shaheen, Rizwan and Babar too but they lost touch. For Shaheen I used to eagerly wait and watch his first couple overs no matter the format.

Saim ayub any day bro one hell of a talent i would say Pakistan generational talent
 
Ihsanullah, Akif, & Ali Raza though none of them are express pace or fast but the heart wants what the heart wants.

I find batting in white ball cricket boring with all batters being the same generic kind of batters. A good test innings on the 5th day 4th innings is what I want to see but no Pak batter is good enough to do so.

That Stokes innings against Aus leading his side to the win is one of the best innings I've ever seen & that's what I yearn to see from a Pak batter.
 
I still enjoy Babar Shaheen Haris and Naseem but they are rarely on good form. On their A games they are very exciting and Babar when he is playing well is beautiful to watch. So there is always some hope with them at the crease that you can see something special.

Apart from the nostalgic picks then Fakhar Zaman is our only box office player and Saim isn't far behind.
 
If we keep (make your team win) aside then Babar is still that guy from Pakistan who gives me that excitement and joy when i watch him in full flow. Right now we have so many unorthodox players or six hitting machines in cricket that these kinda players don't give me that thrill anymore. It's players like kohli ,babar,root or even kl rahul (when he is trying to play ground shots) that gives me treat to my eyes.

Haris Rauf is definitely fun to watch when he's on song. Against Australia in the ODI series he was fantastic. Pace on right length. Zipping through the batter.
 
Of late, there haven't been any eye pleasing batsmen from Pakistan. Babar somewhat had it, but it's fading away sharply. Liked Sajid Khan and Saud Shakil vs England in
 
None to be honest. In 2023 when Naseem, Shaheen and Haris combination was doing well in ODIs it was great to watch but post that the entire Pakistan team has been flat. So no one excites a neutral in the current Pakistan team set up.
 
spinners. Be it Abrar Ahmed or Sufiyan Muqeem. I enjoy watching spin bowlers bowl.

Grew up watching Danish Kaneria in test cricket
 
Shahid Afridi was the guy who entertained people when he was on song and people loved watching him bat.

As of yet, I think Saim is the guy who is pleasing to watch when on song, Babar is class when he was in form. Still plays some shots that are too good but he is not our best batter anymore..
 
I really enjoyed watching Hassan Nawaz bat this PSL. He still has a long way to go as a batsman but when he's on song, he's fantastic to watch. He may be the middle-order batsman that Pakistan have been missing in their T20 side.
 
Saim was good before injury.

I would say Babar Azam when he is fluent.

Unpopular opinion maybe, but Salman Agha is worth watching as well - smart and gritty.
