How we did in Tests this year.

So who is your choice for our Test player of 2021?
 
Shaheen Shah Afridi.

He is reviving the Pakistani fast bowling tradition after years of mediocrity.
 
Hasan Ali should not be in the list, he had some good spells in longer version against weaker teams but his disastrous performance in the most important event in 2021 , T20 WC , should put him on back seat.

Of course, because his performances in T20is should matter when discussing TEST player of the year.

Yes, my mistake, I did not realized we're talking about test. Yes, in tests he should be a contender but not the winner , that honor goes to Afridi.
 
I want to go Shaheen Afridi since he is my favourite player, but I will go for Fawad Alam, as he got those brilliant centuries against New Zealand, South Africa and West Indies, which is difficult to do for a number 5 middle-order batsman. I think he also got a century against Zimbabwe and a fifty against Bangladesh. Yes, Shaheen Shah had multiple brilliant performances, but I just felt Fawad Alams centuries (after collapses of top-order batsmen) were more impressive. Plus it would simply be an epic journey/ story if Fawad Alam wins Pakistan Test Cricketer after being rejected for so long. He has also been the best number 5 batsman this year and 1000% deserves to be in ICC 2021 Test XI, but ICC will probably do their usual stupid thing and place someone like Williamson or Root in number 5 (which shouldn't be allowed because that isn't their position).

Shaheen has a lot of years ahead of him to continue with his brilliant performances Inshallah.
 
On one hand i say what good are bowlers if they have no score to defend, Fawad Alam is my vote for test player of the year for Pakistan otherwise it's a draw between Shaheen and Alam.

May Allah give both these guys more successes in 2022.
 
Honestly, between SSA, Hassan and Fawad, there is no wrong answer. I'd personally go with Hassan.
 
Fawad Alam - an interesting choice because of the calmness he brought to the middle order.
 
Fawad Alam or Shaheen. I'd go for Shaheen as a 22 year-old having to lead the Pakistan attack, and he's doing it with distinction in all formats.
 
My vote goes to Shaheen without a doubt. 47 wickets at 17.06 in 2021. He's been absolutely brilliant.
 
Hassan Ali chosen by the PCB - and for a good reason.
 
I don't mind Hassan Ali, but I thought Fawad Alam deserved it more.
 
Babar Awan. I am still having nightmares about that Hasan drop in the semi final v Australia.
