This guy has serious potential and is not looking raw. He is looking very refined bowler. 6'5" tall, High arm bowling action, hitting the right lengths, getting bounce from good length, decent pace, looks around or more 135K certainly and is has a left arm advantage. I don't know here he was hiding and has not played a single FC match yet for Hyderabad at the age of 23 while Hyderabd has very abysmal pace attack, I would say. He can be a great find for Hyderabad this season. I am excited to see this guy. Glimpses of Zak are there in his bowling action. I am really surprised with the kind of control he is showing in his bowling for a bowler who has not played any First Class cricket yet. Really one to watch out for this Ranji Season if he plays. Hyderabad must play him. http://www.sportsallways.com/MailScoreCard.aspx?MID=b097a7ed9cc74386

i think many people yesterday in this forum acknowledged that this lad is impressive, but finally who are we to cares, we can't do much. Maybe his performance against england would put him under someone SANE. Hoping for the best

I think this is the same guy who took 3 wickets against england. Never saw him but taking wickets against international side on flat tracks with white ball is a good. What makes this important is......he has done this with no FC exp. I would like to see him in atleast IPL. It would be interesting to see his performance in second match against england.

This guy suprisingly seems refined, his natural attributes, very tall , left hander, pace bounce and good runup action,very impressed,eNGLISH PLAYERS WILL BE THINKING LOL , REALLY HOW CAN THEY AFFORD TO PLAY v kumar WITH RAW TALENT LIKE THESE PLAYERS IN iNDIA.I am sure he might've received some good coaching, he also seems confident and aggressive also Murtuza Vohra is 25 seems good.

IPL is not a criteria to analyze performance of any player. IPL is just sheer entertainment like Masala Bollywood movies. We need bowlers for real cricket that is Test matches. His bowling style certainly suits test cricket. He has done well even in club cricket of Hyderabad. Very few real bad balls I saw in this whole video of him and he bowled 74 balls in total in this innings. Now he needs to be played FC and then see how he goes.

RKT I have seen alot of the other bowlers in the video which bowlers in particular you think have promise.AAQUIB sHEIKH , dOMINIK jOSEPH,m VOHRA, sHAMI aHMED, THEN THERE WAS A PACER FROM vIDHARBA HE LOOKED OK.eVEN sHAMI BOWLED VERY CONSISTENTLY AND ATTACKED STUMPS DURING THE VIDEO

[rkt.india]

Anwar, Faizal, Anthuf, Niyas, Shami, Vahora..... These are the guys we had not seen before and looked to have some potential if are worked upon.

[MCcricket]

IT IS FUNNY WHEN WE HEAR INDIA HAS ALL THE TALENT AND IS VERY TRUE,but our team doesn'y have any bench strength and our domestic competetion breeds mediocre players , that for me sums it all , and it all comes down to Sports Bodies,looking at our challenger squads you wonder really these are the best available talent.

[gakgupta]

anwar looked good to me...he reminds of stuart clark of australia, except that he is a left arm bowler. Smooth run-up and good release. No fuss with his action. More importantly, he is extremely tall, may be as tall as ishant sharma. Considering the pathetic situation of hyderabad, he didn't made a ranji debut...hard to believe. I don't think he is fast...may be below 130 kmph

[MCcricket]

All indications are this guys is Fast medium ,when a tall bowler is bowling the trajectory and viewing angle always makes the ball appear slower , unless if you look from side angle, looking at the keeper, the batsmen having no time to even touch the ball or react, the arm rotation and tracking the ball, this guys has pace, very good action, he is very tall and good follow thru.

[gakgupta]

hope this guy plays in second practice match as well and get some attention of selectors. He should be given a chance in challenger trophy atleast.

[Trundler27]

yesssssssssssssss i feel like hyderabad has a left arm chris tremlett..... plz get him in the ranji squad pleeeeeeez His line to the right handers from over the wkt is amazing in the video plus he is getting the ball to move away from the right handers with good bounce on what looks like a placid track.... double thumbs up for his potential alone.

[daryl1985]

Wow sounds like a very exciting prospect. 6'5", is he the 2nd tallest Indian after the Great Khali? On a serious note it sounds like this guy has the attributes to be very good. I really hope he can be developed into a test class bowler. BTW i'm in England, does anyone know if the video of this guy bowling can only be seen in India?

[MCcricket]

This guy seems to have the ability, I think he should be tried in A tours for sure, the batsmen were looking like gully cricketers, also his rhythmic approach,good control , sems to have the ability to plan his bowling areas, is aggressive, the way he moves his shoulders , he extracts lot of bounce, he looks a level above all our seasoned ranji bowlers for sure.Iam now more excited about him then say Abu Nechim.

Does not look like just a club bowler.

[MCcricket]

Is there any coverage of todays hca , england game,anyone showing it? I am not sure unless he had an injury why he did not figure out in any teams before this time.This guy should be fast tracked, send him to England or AUSTRALIA , do not let him be over bowled let him be prepared to play for India.Are there any articles on him,he is a talent and surprisingly not raw, everything about his bowling looks good.
