Wisden overview
A fast bowler of growing repute, Umar Gul is the latest in Pakistan’s
assembly-line of pace-bowling talent. He had played just nine first-class
matches when called up for national duty in the wake of Pakistan's poor 2003
World Cup. On the flat tracks of Sharjah, Gul performed admirably, maintaining
excellent discipline and getting appreciable outswing with the new ball. He has
a lethal yorker, which he used to good effect to get his first Test scalp,
against Bangladesh at Karachi. He will have to prove himself against tougher
opponents, but the early signs are clearly encouraging. No pretensions with the
bat, though. S Rajesh
