Shoaib Mohammad all praise for Mohammad Hafeez – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Hafeez-c76898 in International cricket since the last one year, and believes that the all-rounder is equally effective in all the three formats of the game.
Hafeez came to the scene of International cricket in 2003, when Pakistan decided to make huge changes in their team after the debacle of the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757. Since then, he has been in and out of the national team and never quite
cemented his place in the squad until last year.
The right-handed opening batsman made a comeback to the Pakistan team last year, in the controversial tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, and since then he has been a permanent member of the national team in all three formats of the game.
Shoaib is of the opinion that Hafeez has improved big time as a cricketer and his consistent performances are a huge plus for Pakistan because the Green Shirts have been struggling in the opening department since many years. He feels that the secret behind
Hafeez’s extra-ordinary performances have been the fact that he is a brilliant off-spinner as well, which gives him immense confidence.
The former opener said, “Earlier on when he got involved with the Pakistan side he was not amongst the run-getters, but since his last induction in the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 side, he has looked a much more mature and very different player. I reckon that was because of
his extra capability of rolling his arm over as well.”
Hafeez is a safe fielder and has the ability to be a utility player whenever the team needs him. Along with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Saeed-Ajmal-c87859, Hafeez forms a formidable spin trio for Pakistan, which has played a huge role in the side's recent successes.
“Hafeez has an edge in that he is a very good player in all three departments of the game and while he has been involved with his bowling and getting wickets he has become a regular bowler for Pakistan for quite some time,“ Shoaib expressed while talking
about the Pakistani all-rounder.
