Ahmed Shehzad
Ahmed Shehzad was yet another teenaged batsman introduced by Pakistan in the big bad world of international cricket. At the age of 17, he made his One-Day International (ODI) and T20 International debut against Australia in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Soon, he was a part of the side that lifted the ICC World T20 2009. A prolific scorer in age-group cricket, Shehzad worked his way up the ranks after making his first-class debut in 2007.
However, Shehzad could not quite establish himself and found himself out of the side after his early introduction. An ODI ton against New Zealand in early 2011 helped him get selected for the World Cup that year, though he did not play the knockout games. Shehzad was axed after the West Indies tour in 2011, though he had scored a ton in one of the ODIs.
He made his comeback two years later in the same setting and established himself thereafter with some phenomenal consistency. In 2013-14, he was handed a Test debut against Sri Lanka in UAE and scored his maiden ton in his third Test. During the 2014 World T20, he became the first Pakistani to score a T20I ton.
Shehzad has a wide range of shots and is talented enough to execute them very late. He doesn’t shy away from making room and going over the off-side in the shorter formats. He is also one of the safest fielders in the Pakistan camp.
