Azhar Ali Biography

An opening batsman by trade, Azhar has worked his way steadily up Pakistan's domestic scene since 2006. That was the season he began opening regularly for Khan Research Laboratories, a move that fetched him two hundreds and two fifties in five matches, and he hasn't looked back. In four seasons since, he's been averaging 40-plus with 11 hundreds, commendable figures in a country where opening is a modern-day curse.

All of his runs have been made with a compact technique, designed to get behind the line of each ball. Observers say he gets into a tangle against the shorter ball often but his patience is key. On an A tour to Australia in 2009, he twice made five-hour 70s against an attack that included Doug Bollinger, Clint McKay and Jason Krejza. That series propelled him into senior team focus and a solid, if not spectacular 2009-10 season, coupled with a move to look beyond Younis Khan and Mohammad Yousuf, brought about a richly-deserved Test debut - in the middle order - at Lord's against Australia.

Shoaib Akhtar Biography

Shoaib Akhtar is a former professional cricketer who played testes and One Day International matches for the Pakistan national team in ICC organized events. He has been dubbed as The Rawalpindi Express after the place where he was born and he is arguably the fastest bowler the world of cricket has ever seen, easily clocking 150 km/hour on many occasions. He became the first man to bowl a delivery over 100 miles/hour or 161.3 km/hour, which is the fastest delivery ever bowled in the history of cricket against England. Moreover, not only did he achieve a speed of 100 miles/hour on his delivery, he achieved it twice during one single match and that is something that makes him very unique in the world of fast bowlers. His prowess lay in being able to bowl fast and precise Yorkers as well as quick bouncers and these abilities made him one of the greatest as well as most feared bowlers of all time, the likes of which had not been seen in international cricket since the times of Michael Holding, Joel Garner, Jeff Thompson, Dennis Lillie, Malcolm Marshall and the likes – players who depended on raw pace to pick up wickets.

However, Shoaib Akhtar was also a very controversial figure and it followed him wherever he went. It has been said that he was very selfish and not a team man. The Pakistan team management once sent him home from Australia in the middle of a series because of an alleged poor behavior on his part. In 2006, he was perhaps involved in the biggest controversy when WADA found Shoaib Akhtar guilty of taking performance enhancing drugs and the ICC banned him from playing cricket. This ban was however lifted and he returned to the Pakistan national side the following year and almost immediately, got himself banned by the Pakistan Cricket Board or the PCB for fighting with team mate and fellow opening bowler Mohammad Asif during a training session.

He was selected to play for the Kolkata Knight Riders for the inaugural IPL but injuries blighted his season and he played only a handful of matches. Akhtar was so injury prone that he only managed to play a total of 46 tests and 163 One Day Internationals in his 12 year international career, taking a total of 425 wickets in all. Shoaib Akhtar, in spite of all his short comings, is truly a legend of the game and no matter what happens, cricket will always remember this flamboyant star.

In poor health of put together, Yasir’s game is built scheduled timing and a trouble-free stylishness.
A modus operandi is quite unyielding than a lot of up to date peak-order Pakistani batsmen doled out him fighting fit in his profession in the early hours on. His takes advantages of in the one-day sports ground was in the beginning as remarkable, and he counterfeit an outstanding mixture with Imran Farhat at the peak of the order: in opposition to New Zealand at home the match up places collectively a testimony four uninterrupted hundred partnerships. In the early hours signs were showing potential at that time, other than he urbanized a nerve-racking predisposition to fritter away his starts, making an attractive 20s and after that hurling it away, over and over again by floundering at extensive ones outer surface off. That saw him be unable to find his position in the team in behind schedule 2004. Electoral contradictions did not facilitate, Hameed being went down the after that match later than scoring two fifties in a Test at Syndey. After that opportunities have been inadequate: a not many ODIs here and there (in all of which he has made assistance) and not any Tests from the time when June 2005.
Perseverance at domestic stage remunerated off, on the other hand, as he backed to the national squadron in opposition to the West Indies in November 2006, made a duo of fifties in the ODI series and reserved himself a place to South Africa at the begin of 2007. With Mohammad Yousuf omitted there, chances will be present.
