Haseebullah Khan Family
Haseebullah belongs to a cricketing family as his father Azizullah and his uncle Hameedullah were both first-class cricketers. Cricket was a very important part of his family life as both his father Azizullah Khan (17 First-class games) and his uncle Hameedullah Khan (21 First-class games) were accomplished cricketers so there was plenty of inspiration for him to follow the same route in sports. In addition, his younger brother Abdul Saboor is also doing well for Balochistan Under-16s. So, of course, watching his father and uncle play cricket at the First-class level really filled him with the hope that even he will be able to attain their stature one day and so all his thoughts were directed towards cricket.
Haseebullah Khan Early Cricketing Days
Haseebullah’s love for cricket began at a young age when he used to watch his favorite player Saeed Anwar bat aggressively on television. He was inspired by Saeed Anwar’s style of play and dreamed of becoming a cricketer himself. However, he faced several challenges along the way.
Coming from a small town in Pakistan, Haseebullah did not have access to modern cricketing facilities. But that did not deter him from pursuing his passion. Instead, he set up his own net at home where he could practice cricket with his father.
His father bowls to him every day, helping him sharpen his skills and perfect his technique.
Haseebullah’s hard work and dedication paid off when he was selected to play for his local club team. He quickly caught the attention of the national selectors and was soon playing for his country’s U-19 team. His impressive performances in the domestic circuit earned him a spot in the PSL team Peshawar Zalmi, where he has been showcasing his talent on the field.
Haseebullah Khan Role Models in Cricket
I know that in his playing days, my father always dreamt of playing cricket for Pakistan. Whilst he was not able to fulfill his own aspirations, he made sure that he has done what he can for me to prepare for a possible future role in the Pakistan side.
He always tells me to not waste time and work on my game for which he is always available to help me. For the guidance and inspiration, he has provided me all my life, my father is my role model. Amongst the players I admire, Fakhar Zaman is one whose batting style is really good and in terms of inspiration I also look up to Ijaz Ahmed especially when I see how after serving Pakistan in his playing days, he is now working hard with the youngsters to make them good players as well.
Haseebullah Khan Domestic Career and Stats
Haseebullah Khan was fortunate to have his father as his coach and mentor who taught him the basics of the game and that led him to appear at the Quetta region Under-13 trials in 2015 where he was declared over age which was a little disappointing. He then continued working hard with his father in the nets and without playing any proper cricket in the interim, appeared for Quetta region Under-16 trials as a wicket-keeper batsman which was mainly due to his uncle Hameedullah Khan’s influence who himself was a ‘keeper.
He hardly knew how to put on my wicket-keeping equipment so appearing for trials was a huge jump for him. Playing in his first season at the Under-16 level in the PCB-PEPSI Stars U-16 One-Day Tournament 2017/18, He had a rather disappointing 128 runs to my name in 6 innings. His next season in the same tournament was much better as he hit 250 runs in 5 innings, with 109 as my highest score. This put him as the 3rd highest run-getter in that tournament which was great for his confidence.
Representing Pakistan at the Under-16 level
He was first selected for the Pakistan Under-16s for the tour of UAE to play Australia in 2018/2019 but it wasn’t a memorable one for him as he made quite a few mistakes and gave his wicket away after having settled down. The next Pakistan Under-16 assignment for him was the tour of Bangladesh that proved to be much better as he was the 2nd highest run-getter in the One-Day matches where he scored 154 runs in 2 matches, with a highest score of 129 to his name.
Haseebullah Khan Baluchistan Under-19 Cricket Career
As a member of the Balochistan Under-19 squad, he took part in the National Under-19 One-Day Tournament 2019/20 and scored 113 runs in 4 innings and in the next season of the same tournament, he scored 209 runs in 10 games.
