Playing for Pakistan was an amazing experience, expresses http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hasan-Raza-c62007 – Cricket News Update
Hasan Raza, the youngest player to have ever played a Test match, repents the lack of chances he was given at the highest stage of the game, but he still feels that he can make a comeback to the Pakistani team even at this stage of his career.
The youngster came through the ranks of junior cricket in the country and represented Pakistan Under-16s in the World Cup in 1996 before he was given an opportunity to make his Test debut against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Zimbabwe-c3045 in the same year at Faisalabad.
A number of cricket analysts in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hasan-c61990 has always been a very talented player and Pakistan cricket could have utilized him better by letting him mature in the domestic cricket of Pakistan, instead of throwing him at the international stage
at such a young age.
While speaking to Pakpassion, the right-handed middle-order batsman from Karachi said that the senior players of the national team were very helpful towards him when he joined the Green Shirts. He revealed that the
senior players like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Wasim-Akram-c96292 and Inzamam ul Haq urged him to play his natural game and not to take any pressure on himself.
Hasan said, “Although they were very experienced players, they treated me very well and gave me plenty of confidence – guys like Wasim Akram and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Inzamam-ul-Haq-c64383. They told me to play as I had played in regional cricket and in the international age group.”
Hasan, who is presently leading Habib Bank Limited (HBL) in the domestic cricket of Pakistan, expressed that playing for Pakistan is an amazing feeling and those players are very lucky who get the opportunity to wear the Pakistani cap. He thanked the national
selectors of that time who gave him an opportunity to represent the country in the teenage.
“I found it to be a magical experience. It was unbelievable – in a nation of 180 million people, every player, at the age of 15, 16, 18 wants to represent Pakistan. But fate and Pakistani cricket gave me the opportunity and along with my hard work, I had
a lot of confidence,” he added.
