Mohammad Shahzad
Mohammad Shahzad has been one of the main batsman for Afghanistan over the years and has played a crucial role in taking his country to high levels in international cricket. The hard-hitting batsman became the first Afghan player to score a first-class double century and then later went on to become the first cricketer in his nation to cross the 1000 run mark in List A cricket.
One of the main highlights of his career was his century against India during the 2018 Asia Cup and after that many felt that the wicketkeeper-batsman can attract a lot of buyers in the IPL but he was unfortunate to not find any bidders.
