U-19 World Cup: Player of the Day, Zahid Saeed
18 January 2000

Pak pacer wrecks New Zealand

The architect of Pakistan's comfortable victory over New Zealand was their pace bowler Zahid Saeed. In helpful conditions, Saeed was quite unplayable and none of the batsmen were able to cope with his pace.

Saeed looks a certain future Test player. The tall lad knocked the backbone of the New Zealand batsmen in devastating fashion, finishing with five for 13. Saeed is the only bowler upto now in the tournament to have taken five wickets in an innings. In Radella he had 3 for 14 in a first round game of the game against Kenya.

Saeed holds the key to Pakistan's success in future games. If he maintains his form, Pakistan looks certain of going through to the final.
