Yasir
Arafat is an all-rounder of typically Pakistani ethos; ideal for ODI cricket
but also you suspect capable of occasionally critical feats in Test matches,
though he is yet to play one. He is useful as a lower-order plunderer - he
averages nearly 27 at first-class level though his bowling remains much his
stronger suit.
His type
of straight, full, skiddy bowling courtesy a slingy action accounted for
Andrew Flintoff's wicket at an ODI in Karachi in December 2005. It has also
helped him to nine wickets against England in a warm-up game earlier during
the same series and it once accounted for five wickets in six balls in a
domestic game in December 2004 (four of the five were either leg-before or
bowled), a feat performed by only three other bowlers. He can generate pace
and when conditions are helpful, swing.
He has good experience of
English conditions; having played league cricket and for Scotland, he was
recruited by Sussex in the 2006 Championship season. In his first three
games, he took 17 wickets with two five-wicket hauls as well as scoring a
couple of fifties. He has been on the fringes of the Pakistan squad for a
number of years though given the allrounders ahead of him - Abdul Razzaq,
Shahid Afridi and even Shoaib Malik - he isn't likely to become a permanent
member anytime soon.
