Abdul Razzaq
Abdul Razzaq is rapid enough to open the bowling and composed enough to bat anywhere. His bowling - the reason he was first noticed - is characterised by a galloping approach, accuracy, and reverse-swing. But it is his batting that is more likely to win matches. He boasts a prodigious array of strokes and is particularly strong driving through cover and mid-off off both front and back foot. He has two gears: block or blast. Cut off the big shots and Abdul gets bogged down, although patience is his virtue. Early in his career he promised to be Pakistan's most complete allrounder since Imran Khan, but lately his bowling has fallen away, though he remains an effective bowling option in one-dayers.
