KEY PLAYERS
MUHAMMAD BABAR
Pak I Care skipper Muhammad Babar did not always enjoy the opportunity to impress due to the strength of his top order, but when the crunch came Babar brilliantly bailed his side out of trouble to lead his side to glory at November's ECS Barcelona. Pak I Care's all-time leading run scorer will also chip in with vital scalps with the ball.
MUHAMMAD JAFRI
Jafri captured the attention of a massive global audience playing for Italian representatives Janjua Brescia at the inaugural European Cricket League - ECL19 - at La Manga Club in Spain. Jafri joined forces with another Italian team as Jinnah Brescia got the job done to lift the trophy at the European Cricket Series Rome last Autumn. By his own high standards, Jafri has underperformed at recent ECS Barcelona tournaments. The explosive all-rounder will be looking to make a real impact in the opening ECS of 2021.
MUHAMMAD KAMRAN
Left-arm quick Muhammad Kamran starred for Sporting Alfas at the very first ECS – European Cricket Series Alicante - in March. Kamran was easily the most economical bowler at the whole tournament, bowling 10 overs for just 49 runs - amazing figures with the short boundaries. Muhammad Kamran makes it happen with both bat and ball for Pak I Care.
MUHAMMAD IHSAN
Muhammad Ihsan - An explosive batsman and six hitting machine. Deservedly crowned Player of the Tournament, Ihsan made batting look easy in Pak I Care's procession to the European Cricket Series Barcelona title. Ending tournament leading run scorer on 376 runs, blasting the small matter of 42 sixes over the course of the fortnight T10 frenzy in the autumnal Spanish sunshine. In his ten innings of carnage, Ihsan averaged 75.2 at a rapido strike rate of 264.78.
