At U-19 level Junaid Khan was among of a crop of the most promising young fast bowlers in recent years, alongside Mohammad Amir. Good pace and better stamina and an ability to move the ball around if the conditions are right, Khan finally made it to national contention when he was called up for Pakistan's 2011 World Cup squad as a late replacement for Sohail Tanvir.
Khan is from the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province and has built up an impressive domestic career with Abbottabad, for whom he debuted in January 2007. The record acquires greater sheen given that Abbottabad are among the weaker sides on the circuit. Those performances have led him to Pakistan A selection, for whom he has been impressive in two series now, never less than when taking nine wickets in a 'Test' against Sri Lanka A in Hambantota in September 2010.

Junaid Khan from a Mat Seller of Swabi to World class Fast Bowler.Muhammad Junaid Khan commonly known as Junaid Khan is a Pakistani international cricketer who bowls left arm fast-medium. He is the first player from Swabi to make it into the Pakistan national cricket team. He has made himself a world-class bowler during India-Pakistan Cricket Series 2012-2013.
Junaid shares he wanted to focus on cricket, but agreed to get married on his parents’ insistence as they thought it was time for him to take up this responsibility. Khansa is the daughter of Junaid’s father’s business partner in England, living with her family in Yorkshire. Junaid is hopeful that the new relationship will bear fruit and a stepping stone in both his personal and public life.
Credited with being one of the consistent performers in the Pakistani cricket team, he made his international debut 2011. The celebrity athlete has represented Pakistan in 16 Tests, 46 One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and nine T20 Internationals (T20Is).
He is currently playing T20 cricket in England for Lancashire, where he has proven his mettle by taking 11 wickets in six matches. “I’m thankful to the PCB for allowing me to play in England at a time when a month-long training camp is taking place in Lahore,” states Junaid.
Of his Lancashire T20 cricket experience, says, “The [experience] has been of great help to me as it has boosted my confidence. I wanted to get some tough match practise before our upcoming matches and feel that I’m ready to take on Sri Lankans [during the Pakistan versus Sri Lanka series] in August.” He further comments, “I have developed a sense of maturity and feel that I can go onto spearhead our bowling attack in all formats.”
The fast bowler had been a regular fixture in test and one-day matches, but found it hard to break into the fast-paced T20 side and has often been rested in the shortest format of the game. However, his performance in the ongoing T20 matches could serve as food for thought for the team management and selectors.
