Pakistan v Afghanistan - ICC Cricket World Cup 2019
Mohammad Nabi

Mohammad Nabi is a quality Afghanistan all-rounder, who recently retired from Test cricket.

Nabi came up with some memorable performances in the World Cup. While he didn't have a great time with the bat, his 52 from 55 against India at Southampton, which featured four fours and a six, gave the former world champions a massive scare. It needed a hat-trick from Mohammed Shami to save India from embarrassment and bowl them to a 11-run victory.

Nabi also made a significant impact in the World Cup with his off-spin. In nine games, he claimed 10 wickets at an average of 33.50 and an economy rate of 4.61, with a best of 4 against Sri Lanka at Cardiff - where Afghanistan again scented victory but couldn’t pull off the upset.

Nabi is definitely an asset to any T20 side, as Sunrisers Hyderabad discovered last year. In 8 games he scored 115 runs from 76 balls faced, at a strike rate of 151.31. With the ball he did even better, claiming eight wickets at an economy rate of 6.65 with a best of 4 for 11.
