One of a new generation of Pakistan fast bowlers,
Mohammad Sami forced his way into the Test team with outstanding
performances in domestic cricket and had an immediate impact in his
first Test with five wickets against New Zealand. Then, in only his
third Test, he notched a hat-trick, eking out the last three Sri
Lankans in the Asian Test Championship final. From a shortish run-up
and high action he generates surprising pace, consistently around
the 90mph mark. He also quickly mastered traditional outswing and
yorker-length reverse-swing. Sami has a slight build for a fast
bowler and once he fills out he should be nudging the speedometer
even higher. After a disappointing series against India, his bowling
average is in the mid-40s, but Pakistan have high hopes for him, and
believe that his bowling will consistently win them matches. |
