After Moin Khan and Rashid Latif, Kamran Akmal is the next talented wicketkeeper-batsman to represent Pakistan. He made his first-class debut at the age of 15 as a useful wicketkeeper and a hard-hitting opening batsman. After a string of good performances for Pakistan A, he earned his first international cap against Zimbabwe.A gritty character, Akmal is a useful batsman who can be moved around in the batting order. His keeping has been criticized but he has always taken the criticism as a stepping stone to improve. Initially, he was always chosen as an option in the absence of the regular keepers but with the Moin’s retirement and Latif out of contention, Akmal has become a full-fledged member of the team. He was not expected to play in the Tests, but made his debut - and chipped in with a handy 38 at Harare - when Rashid Latif suffered a recurrence of a long-standing back injury. Initially his opportunities were limited, most of his matches coming when Latif or Moin were unavailable - he was the substitution when Latif was suspended for five one-dayers against Bangladesh, and then again when Moin was injured for the last two Tests against India. However, from October 2004, with Latif out of favour and Moin no longer at his peak, Akmal became Pakistan's first-choice wicketkeeper.He began 2006 as he ended 2005; two hundreds against India and both, for varying reasons, were special. The first, at Lahore, was the fastest Test hundred by a wicketkeeper. The second, on a seaming first day green-top at Karachi, not only saved Pakistan from the depths of 39 for 6, eventually leading to a thumping win, but is unlikely to be forgotten by anyone who saw it. Since then, he has experienced a horrendously lean patch, culminating in a horror show in England and South Africa, where he shelled catches, fumbled takes and didn't score runs. As Pakistan toyed with the idea of resting him, he responded, improving his glove work enough to have a decent World Cup behind the stumps.

| | ghazi i am agree wd u really he is 9th class wkt keeper | | | | nosheen khawaja, azad kashmir | 06 April, 2011 |
|
|
| A very very third class wicket keeper. Catch win the match but he always drops impotant catches. Shame very shame. I advise Kamran to immediately visit at Rashid Lateef Academy for learning about wicket keeping or otherwise he should be replaced with Sarfaraz Ahmed, a great wicket keeper.
