Our take
It's just the start for a wayward Hasnain
He has played five ODIs for Pakistan and two T20Is.
His average and strike-rate are on the higher side and he is also wayward at times.
But this is just the start. He has the pace and just needs to execute his line and and length.
One expects Hasnain to make rapid strides for Pakistan in time to come.
He is a sheer talent.
