Kasir Shah

Last updated

Kasir Zamir Shah (born 15, June 1978) was a Pakistani cricketer. He was a left-handed batsman and a left-arm medium-fast bowler who played for Derbyshire between 1999 and 2000. [1]

Shah's Cricket career began at Warwickshire, where he played in the Second XI from 1996, but it was at Derbyshire he was at his most notable, [2] after playing for the team thanks to sponsorship from businessmen. Though 2000 was a bad year for most concerned, captain Tim Munton was unprepared to let Shah bowl, and he was not offered a contract for the 2001 season. [3]

An uncharacteristically patient tailender, he would stick at the crease and defend much longer than his status down the order would appear to imply.
