Riaz Hassan is a remarkable batting talent playing for Afghanistan in ODI cricket.
An explosive right-handed batter, Hassan currently occupies an opening spot alongside Afghan sensation Rahmanullah Gurbaz. He has impressed in his 7 ODI outings to date, from his 50 on debut against the Netherlands (Jan 2022) to notable quick-fire starts against Bangladesh (35), Pakistan (34), and most recently (Sept 2024) South Africa (29).
His elevation to the national side came as no surprise. After starring for the Afghanistan U19s (2018/19), he would dominate the Ghazi Amanullah Khan Regional One-Day Tournament (Oct 2021) averaging 56.33. A few months later (Nov-Dec 2021), Hassan would continue to shine, this time in first-class cricket (Ahmad Shah Abdali Tournament) averaging 79.50 including a highest score of 196.
Over the next few years, Hassan would become a regular for the Afghanistan A side, whilst finding his feet in the ODI set-up. In July 2023, he would average 62.33 in the Asian Cricket Council Men’s Emerging Cup, then the following year (April/May 2024) he would strike 2 tons and a 74 in their 6-match series against Sri Lanka A.
His exploits for the A side and in domestic cricket, plus signs of promise on the international stage has ensured Hassan remains a key prospect for Afghanistan’s white-ball future.
A serious prospect, Hassan not only dominates up top with the bat, but doubles as an accomplished wicketkeeper. Hassan has a bright future ahead of him and the talented Afghan is now seeking global opportunities, following in the footsteps of his fellow team-mates who dominate the Franchise game.
