Known for his aggressive style of batting, young Sahibzada Farhan was drafted by Islamabad United as their emerging player for Pakistan Super League 2018. Pakistan have produced some quality and explosive openers in the past - Imran Nazir, Sharjeel Khan, Shahid Afridi to name a few. Well, Sahibzada is one such player who can join this list of insistent openers from Pakistan in near future. Not only is he a hard-hitter of the cricket ball, but it's also his stability that makes him stand-out from the rest.
In 2017, Farhan smashed four half centuries along with a magnificent century during the Pakistan Cup and grabbed the eye balls of many cricket experts in Pakistan. Apart from that his average of 45-plus in T20s makes him an exciting player to watch out for. There are many young cricketers who show promise to start off but sooner than later tend to get carried away and are lost into wilderness. Hopefully, Farhan doesn’t fall in that category of cricketers.
