2019 - Youngsters XI for Tests

The Seamers

Hasan Ali (Pakistan)

Ripping them apart

Energetic, powerful, and lively, Hasan Ali has all the traits a fast bowler craves for. He can clock speeds in excess of 140 km/hr with ease. Also, when he bowls line and length and moves the ball, he becomes a lethal weapon. He hasn't been at his lethal best, but one can hope that the best is still in store for Hasan Ali.
