Samiullah Salarzai is a genuine quick who has played 11 first-class matches picking up 27 wickets at 32.48.
A former Afghanistan Under-19 squad member (for the 2020 ICC World Cup in South Africa), he broke into domestic cricket during the 2017/18 season.
He bagged 11 wickets at 41.45 in his maiden season, but then excelled on his return, taking 16 poles at 26.31 including his first five-wicket haul, in 2018/19.
Unfortunately for Salarzai, he has surprisingly not featured in first-class since albeit has played white-ball cricket domestically. He hopes to feature this summer, assuming red-ball cricket returns in 2021/22, in order to play 1 further first-class match to become eligible for a UK International Sportsperson Visa (Creative and Sporting) Visa.
Should he do so, he would be an excellent signing for any club looking for a young, and incredibly promising, quick bowler who is more than capable with bat-in-hand.
There are no overseas stats available for this player.
