Yeah, right
Plays his club cricket in Karachi he's a Dhoni clone both in style and stroke play.
Good going by Afghanistan. All of them batting well except Asghar, Nabi and Javid - who is new. Especially the Captain has done well to score his first FC century. He is on 168 - can he make it 200?
It will be exciting to follow this tour because Afghanistan don't have Shapoor Zadran And Noor Ali. A key Bowler and a key batsmen - lets see what the replacements can do.

Other than for Tikolo and Odoyo, others will struggle to lay a bat on him if he bowls similar to what he did in T20 WC. He's a beast and consistently clocked 90mph+

Looks more 29 like TBH

Yeah, right
Dont forget Seren Waters and Ragheb Aga both play county cricket and face this pace on a weekly basis, they'll be alright, but Afghanistan definitely right on top at the moment.
Yeah, more 2nd XI stuff, in fact, I dont think Seren has even played firsts yet, but other then the above mentioned names, I do agree that Kenya's bats will most likely struggle with the Afghan pace attack.

Looks closer to 40.

Anyway, I know nothing about Afghanistan cricket. However from this thread I gather the above "19 year old's" record is immense even for associate cricket (who has he played against?) and they have a 90mph bowler.
Jeez, they might become decent before Bangladesh at this rate. Bangladesh are starting to improve quickly now tbf.

Most of the quick pAkistani bowlers are of Pathan tribe. Some Afgans also belongs to that tribe (Biggest tribe is Pashtuns if I am not mistaken). Hamid Hassan most probably is a Pathan, who actutally has physique for fast bowling unlike other sub continental teams.
A video of Hamid in Action in Pakistan domestic cricket:

Not a great action by any stretch of the imagination but he definitely seems to get it through.
