Sarfraz Ahmed
PROFILE
Sarfraz Ahmed is a right-handed wicket-keeper batsman for Pakistan who has played five ODIs for the Under-19 team. He has served as the captain for the U-19 World Cup in 2006 after surprising the spectators by scoring back-to-back half centuries in only his third and fourth match. With Pakistan winning the World Cup, Sarfraz was duly outlined from the domestic cricket. He played first class cricket for Karachi. He played only ten first-class matches in his first full season for Karachi and Sind - as well as nine 'A' matches and five Twenty20 games. He scored an aggregate of 523 runs with the help of five half-centuries, with 28 dismissals behind the stumps. This remarkable performance did not go unnoticed as Sarfraz was named in the tour against Australia 'A' during the second half of 2007 as well as facing the South Africans in a tour match.
Sarfraz Ahmed had a terrific start to the 2007-08 season, where he has struck three fifties in the first five matches with 21 dismissals behind the stumps. He played the Test match in Hobart against Australia in 2010, and has also played ODIs sporadically for Pakistan. On 4th December 2014, Sarfraz Ahmed’s lucky star shinned bright as he scored a brilliant 76 not out in a T20 match against New Zealand. With that win, Pakistan became the first team to reach 50 T20 wins on the record.
Considering his all-round performance with the bat and behind the stumps, he was selected for the World Cup 2015 squad. He did not have a chance to prove his skills in the first four matches of the World Cup. Sarfraz Ahmed became a star of Pakistan Cricket after the latest match of World Cup 2015 between Pakistan and South Africa. He made a debut in the current World Cup with blistering 49 runs on 49 balls, and was unfortunate to make his fifty. He gave some worth watching performance behind the stumps with 6 catches. He was able to equal the world record of most dismissals in ODIs. He was rewarded Man of the Match award for his all-round performance.
