Rana
made his debut in Sharjah immediately after the disastrous 2003 World Cup,
at which time he was competing with Abdul Razzaq, Shoaib Malik and Azhar
Mahmood for the allrounder's spot. Few backed him then despite some
impressive early performances and he was dropped soon after, allegedly
because of disciplinary problems. But now, with the continuing ambiguity
over Shoaib Akhtar's part in the Pakistan team and injuries to other
bowlers, Rana has worked his way back as an essential cog in the ODI team.
As with most Pakistan bowlers of pace, he can bowl a reverse-swinging yorker
almost at will. His change of pace is another useful weapon. But his nous
with the ball, his control over line and length and his absolute refusal to
consider giving anything less than his all in the field has stood out. His
Test appearances remain limited and largely unsuccessful, though he bowled
well when England visited in 2005-06. Further Tests may still depend on a
permutation of injuries, suspensions for dodgy actions, doping and attitude
issues, but there is no doubting his place and value in the Pakistan set-up.
His form in 2006 has fallen away drastically, possibly due to a groin injury
he picked up at Sussex, and with the return of Umar Gul, his position was in
some doubt. But as Pakistan continued to struggle with finding a fit fast
bowler, he managed to hold on to his place for the World Cup, despite a
disastrous South African tour. As a lower-order, hard-hitting batsman, he
has had little opportunity to impress, despite his insistence that he is, in
fact, a natural wicketkeeper batsman. And he gave up his first love, hockey,
for cricket. |
