Profile Summary

Born in Faisalabad, Punjab, Asif Ali doesn't have numbers that catch your attention at the first-class and List-A level. But one look at his T20 numbers and you realize that this man loves the shortest format of the game.

He made his first-class debut for Faisalabad at the age of 19 in the year 2010. And so far has featured in more than 20 games being in and out of the side. Playing as a specialist batsman, his average of touch more than 17 does not do justice to his talent. And to make matters worse, a single fifty in almost 30 list-A games hasn't enhanced his reputation either.

But the way he announced his arrival on the T20 stage was theatrics personified. Playing for Faisalabad Wolves he smashed a ton off 59 balls against Multan Tigers which included 9 fours and 7 sixes. Asif before playing first-class had worked as a blacksmith but now happens to be a T20 star in the domestic circuit. His exploits were identified by Islamabad United and he was a part of the title triumph in the first edition of the PSL. Having scored only 34 runs in 3 innings, he would be hoping for a better bargain in the second edition of the tourney
