Hasan Raza

Hasan Raza is a Pakistani Right handed batsman and a Right arm off spin bowler who plays with the Lahore Badshahs in the Indian Cricket League.

Raza made his debut in test cricket when he was 14 years and was claimed to be the youngest test player. However allegations regarding the uncertainty of his age resulted in the withdrawal of such claims by the Pakistan Cricket Board.

Raza saw a rough beginning to his career in spite of his good performances because of his off field activities. After debuting against Zimbawe in 1998, Raza played 16 one day internationals and totaled 242 runs with a high score of 77. However in 2000, Raza and friends Shahid and Atiquz were suspended during the ICC Trophy in Kenya, following their involvement with some female quests they had invited to their hotel rooms.

Raza kept playing in the Pakistan A team and also captained the team to a tournament win against India in 2006. He was valued for his 105 runs not out performance but failed to get selected in the National Team. Raza went on to join the rebel Indian Cricket League and was banned from playing domestic cricket by the Pakistan Cricket Board due to the unofficial status of the ICL. Raza currently plays for the Lahore Badshahs in the ICL and is one of the highest run scorers in the ICL.

In his career total of 16 One Day Internationals, Raza has a total of 242 runs averaging at 18.62 runs.
