[Barragan]

Going by PSL, Hasnain is definitely the quickest youngster and even quicker than everyone else.

He is even quicker than Haris, who was expected to hit 150 kph, but he hasn't even hit that once so far (afaik).

What a shame, that Naseem got injured because many say he is the quickest.

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

I think Fastest under 21 bowler in Pakistan is Hasnain at the moment.


Yes Last year Naseem might be quicker than Hasnain but Hasnain has grown post last injury and now he looks stronger so I won't be surprised to know that He has gain a yard of pace in last 6-12 months.



Meanwhile we haven't seen Naseem Shah post injury where he has slightly altered his bowling action as previous action was highly stressful. So we will have to wait and see where Naseem stands atm wrt his speeds.



Haris Rauf is 25-27 years old but he is second fastest but only marginally and if he stays fit we might see him clocking 150 kph aswell.

 

[Dark_Horse]

What about shaur Ahmad the tall guy

 

[ILcricket]

like the was Shah moves the ball away from right hander & than bouncer from round the wicket was brutal .

 

[Mobashir]

Hasnain will be the quicker on average pace. Mohammad Musa isn't that quick for the moment.

Naseem Shah, well, let him have is opportunity on the bigger stages after his injuries and we will see.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Any one with a cricketing sense can see that Naseem is much more quicker than Hasnain, the ball definitely comes off the wicket at serious pace compare to him, Hasnain might beat him in the speed gun but batsmen will find Naseem more difficult to handle because of off the pitch pace.

 

[Xoib]

Nasim looks like a beauty not just pace but action movement in the air of the pitch the well directed bouncers a complete pace package from those clips hopefully he is still as good after injury

Hasnain was quicker than Nasim pre injury and now again after fully recovered from injury. The ones who say Nasim is quicker is due to hasnain slowing down after injury but now he's fully fit with body filling out he's even quicker than a year ago before his injury.

Ball off pitch at quicker pace is due to nature of pitch. Hasnain would be deadly on non UAE pitch.

I agree Nasim seems to have more tools and will be more effective than Hasnain unless Hasnain is coached and faults ironed out

 

[MMHS]

Definitely these group is the most potential bunch may be in last 20 years. Shaheen, Arshad, Hasnain and Naseem are by far most exciting than any U19 group in my memory. And it’s better that 3 of them are right armers- a left arm pacer is handy for variations but oblate there are too many in ever PAK team. After WC, there should be a mass clear out in PCT, with Hasan & may be only Amir should be in consideration for next WC. PCB must ensure that these 4 pacers (Musa as well, but he needs to improve batting to sustain for long term with that height) are playing as lead fast bowler for their FC teams and bowling long spells, otherwise none of them will survive long. Add to that Amad as the bowling all-rounder, prospects are good, but it remains to be seen how the transition happens at PCB’s end.

 

[MenInG]

Some people to choose from and a good time for Pak young fast bowlers - but Hasnain seems to be the leader in terms of speed.

 

[Bewal Express]

Hasnain def the least effective at this point in his career, and one of the worst seams I have seen at any level. Can't take wickets without movement

 

[barah_admi]

Hasnain may be the quickest but we have seen Shaheen turn it up, Riaz is still around, Rauf was quick last I saw him and these younger guys are said to be quick also. What Pakistan needs is correct selection and grooming the young guys into bowlers with pace AND swing/seam/reverse.

Hasnain's speed has been measured a bit now - others not so much so they may well be quicker

I don't follow Pak domestics but how many lethal spells has Hasnain bowled in FC cricket or List A games?

Measuring the speed guns in T20 format is futile. Sure you can seperate the express from the rest but even the average trundler easily hits 140+ in T20.

For example someone like Vinay Kumar or Kaul easily hit the 140's in IPL over a 4 over spell. Put them in even a ODI or List A game leave alone a test or FC their pace drastically drops.

Speed is measured or picked on how lethal a bowler has been in the longer versions.

Akthar,Johnson,Lee,Bond,2 W's,2 C's from WI,Donald etc are known for their lethal spells in longer formats or even ODI's.

Even someone like Ishant who is ridiculed often is still remembered for the spell in Australia vs Ponting after all these years.

I think Pakistani fans and for the matter of fact Indian fans should be excited when they hear of a bowler who ran through a lineup with pace in List A or FC than being excited about speedguns in a T20 league.

Shaheen caught a lot of attention because he was bowling quick in ODI format in the U-19 WC and so did Mavi and Nagarkoti from India.

I am sure international batsman would be wary of someone like Shaheen than say a guy like Hasnain.

 

[The streak is Alive]

Naseem definitely is slower than Hasnain, Musa, and perhaps even Shaheen. So yes, I think Hasnain is the quickest. Shah definitely moves the ball, but going yb the clips seems to be around 135 - 140 kph, with odd delivery bowled at close to 90 MPH.

 

[Savak]

Musa is short but he gets surprising lift at pace which surprises the batsman, he has very powerful shoulders and you can see that is where he generates his pace from

 

[moghul]

Bilawal Bhatti also is short but otherwise possess pace and all the other tricks needed for fast bowler but has been a failure at international level due to lack of minimum height required , don't know why we expect Musa to be successful. Bhatti is a good batsman too.

 

[The streak is Alive]

Is Musa shorter than Shami? I don't think so...

 

[Bewal Express]

Hasnain has no seam at all, Musa has the saucer seam which is more tailored for reverse swing but since the Warner- Smith affair, it has become rare hence the struggle of both Starc and Rabada.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Bilawal Bhatti also is short but otherwise possess pace and all the other tricks needed for fast bowler but has been a failure at international level due to lack of minimum height required , don't know why we expect Musa to be successful. Bhatti is a good batsman too.

Seen the issue with Hasan Ali as well. He is toothless on quick wickets (referring to SA tour). These short bowlers do remain a threat in Asia where reverse swing plays a big role.

The difference is that Musa is very aggressive.

 

[hussain.r97]

At this stage it's definitely Hasnain. We really need to see the others bowl in front of a speed gun though, I think Musa and Nasim are probably 138-145kph range.

 

[Danyaalr01]

Hasnain might have the highest max speed, but I reckon Musa and Naseem would have a higher average pace in a full test match day. Hasnain isn't very fit and can't keep his pace up for long periods. Musa however looks like the fittest pacer in Pakistan, he's like a machine. Naseem is also very fit. I bet Musa can hit some big sixes as well, he looks really strong, he is also a good fielder.
