Who is the best player to have played for Pakistan in the last 10 years?

[Madplayer]

For me its between Fakhar Zamaan and Babar Azam. There have been bowlers who were critical for the team's success but for Pakistan it was of paramount importance that some batting heroes emerge in order to inspire the next generation.

 

[Syed1]

Yasir Shah

 

[Stewie]

Yasir Shah

A big resounding yes... I love that guy! I wish he played all formats..

 

[The_Odd_One]

Sarfraz Ahmed

Safe wicket keeper, decent batsman, great leader, and a clean, humble cricketer

People don't appreciate the positive overall impact he has made for Pakistan cricket.

Remember when we had narcissistic captains like Afridi and wicket keepers like the Akmals?

[ExplicitAI]

From best to worst I'll probably say:

Babar Azam
Yasir Shah
Fakhar Zaman
Hasan Ali
Sarfraz Ahmed
Shoaib Malik

 

[Abdul]

Azhar Ali, Yasir Shah, Misbah-ul-Haq.

 

[AssassinatedDevil]

Wonder how you got the idea for this thread

For me, it has to be Misbah.

 

[Stewie]

If it’s “played” I will agree with Big Mac and say Asif.. if it’s “debuted” I’ll say Yasir Shah.

Yasir Shah in tests
Saeed Ajmal in ODIs
Shahid Afridi in T20s

 

[Rayyman]

Is this even a question?

Younis Khan is a borderline ATG. Obviously him.

 

[ManFan]

ODI's: FZ

Test: Yasir Shah

T20: Mian Malik

 

[DRsohail]

Babar AZAM Ajmal and FAkhar in tests,
Yonus and Yasir Shahand Ajmal in odi.
Afridi Gul ajmal in t20

 

[TQ89]

Misbah ul haq & Younis khan

 

[Godhelpma]

Misbah , followed by Yasir Shah and then Ajmal .

 

[FreePalestine]

TESTS - Younis Khan, Yasir Shah, Ajmal, Misbah
ODI's - No one stands out yet really... Saeed Ajmal
T20's - Umar Gul

Younis Khan is the only ATG in there, so it has to be him really.

 

[Mamoon]

Pretty sure OP means players who have made their debuts within the last 10 years, i.e. 2008 and onwards.

Younis, Misbah, Malik, Gul etc. do not qualify.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Fakhar Zaman and Yasir Shah.

 

[Hasan123]

Yasir Shah,Ajmal,and Babar Azam.

 

[silentkiller187]

saeed ajmal , fakhar zaman , yasir shah

 

[Rahul1]

Ahmed shehzad.

 

[Sam99]

Yasir Shah for me.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Ohh this is such a difficult question, you've got Babar Azam, Fakhar, Sarfaraz, Yasir Shah even Ajmal. I think I will say Ajmal, even though he was a chucker there were many times where Pakistan needed a wicket and most Misbah would go to Ajmal but then when the bowling action had to be changed he lost that spark, which made him lethal. Right now I would say Shadab Khan has been brilliant but has a long way to go same with Fakhar. Yasir Shah would have to be the winner for me now.

 

[Ab Fan]

Yasir Shah because there aren't many options. Others are too young or non-established.

 

[Finisher]

Fakhar Zaman
Mohammed Amir

"Who is the best player to have played for Pakistan in the last 10 years?"- pretty sure its not limited to debuted...

 

[coy0607]

its been a pretty sorry decade in terms of talent and its only now just starting to improve. In another 3-4 years, we can have a good debate on this topic with hopefully Fakhar, Babar, Hassan, Usman, Shadab, Amir...

For last 10 years, I would go with Sarfraz. Been the most impactful across all 3 formats

Younis, Ajmal, Yasir Shah have also been excellent, but maybe not as all around impactful over an extended period as Sarfraz

 

[Angrez Pakistani]

Babar Azam.

 

[msb314]

in ODI's Babar.

Tests has to be Yasir Shah
