“I
started
with
tennis
ball
cricket
and
would
play
in
my
neighborhood,
but
under
the
guidance
of
my
coach,
I
started
bowling
spin,
and
soon,
I
developed
an
action,
and
there
hasn’t
been
any
looking
back
since,”
he
said
while
speaking
to
Sportstar
recently.
Career
so
Far:
Allah
Mohammad
has
trained
with
the
Afghanistan
national
under-19
team.
He
has
previously
played
for
the
Rawalpindi
Raiders
in
the
Pakistan
Junior
League.
He
also
represented
Mis
Ainak
Knights
in
the
Shpageeza
Cricket
League
in
Afghanistan.
He
claimed
five
in
his
first
three
matches
including
a
4/15
in
his
second
match
against
Hindkush
Stars.
“I
love
challenging
the
batters
with
my
spin,
and
the
experience
of
playing
in
the
Shpageeza
League
has
been
immensely
valuable,”
the
15-year-old
told
Sportstar.
He
also
idolizes
Indian
off-spinner
Ravichandran
Ashwin.
Ghazanar
on
IPL
Dream:
“The
IPL
will
help
me
improve
my
game
as
I
would
be
able
to
learn
quite
a
few
things
from
the
Indian
and
overseas
players,
and
I
am
really
looking
forward
to
the
experience.
I
hope
to
get
picked
by
a
franchise,”
he
said.
Ghazanfar,
who
understands
Hindi
but
hasn’t
yet
adopted
the
language
while
speaking,
will
be
hoping
to
have
a
lifetime
experience
if
he
gets
picked
by
any
team
in
the
IPL.
Rashid
Khan,
Mohammad
Nabi,
Mujeeb
Ur
Rahman
are
some
of
the
notable
Afghan
players
who
have
played
in
the
IPL
so
far.
JioCinema
expert
Suresh
Raina
recently
spoke
highly
on
the
Afghan
starlet.
“Watch
out
for
Allah
Mohammad.
At
6ft
2inches
and
15
years
old,
he
is
an
off
spinner
with
a
big
heart.
A
lot
of
talent
coming
from
Afghanistan,”
he
said.
