Abdul Majid Abbasi

Abdul Majid Abbasi, born on September 7, 1993, in the burgeoning cricket environment of Bahrain, rose to prominence as a gifted bowler with an innate flair that made him stand out on the field. His journey in cricket began on the sun-swept grounds of Manama, where his passion for the sport was as vibrant as his surroundings. From modest beginnings, practicing with makeshift equipment in neighbourhood games, Abdul's dedication and innate talent soon saw him catching the eye of local coaches.

Commencing his professional career in Bahrain's national team at just 19, Abdul brought a refreshing dynamism to the game with his slow left-arm orthodox bowling. Known for its subtlety and precision, his technique, though quintessentially classic, had an unpredictability that often left batsmen baffled. Abdul has since cemented his status as one of Bahrain's most valuable cricketing exports, a keystone in the team's bowling attack.

Among his career's numerous highlights are his sensational performances in the ACC Western Region T20 tournaments. Abdul led Bahrain to a historic win in 2019, a milestone marking the island nation's growing influence in cricket. His ability to deliver under pressure became apparent during the match against Qatar in the same tournament, where he clinched four critical wickets, steering his team towards victory. The rivalry with Qatar, reinvigorated by this fiery performance, continues to be a significant chapter in his career.

Abdul’s playing style is marked by his calm demeanour and a sharp cricketing intellect. His left-hand batting, though not his primary strength, has often offered stability to the middle order when needed. Over the years, he has honed the art of deceiving batsmen with flight and guile, often leading them into false shots. It's this mastery that has seen him break records, most notably registering his name among the top wicket-takers in the emerging cricket circuits.

Beyond statistics and achievements, Abdul Majid Abbasi’s greatest contribution to cricket is perhaps the inspiration he offers to aspiring cricketers from non-traditional cricketing nations. His journey illustrates the power of passion and perseverance, marking a transformative era in Bahraini cricket. As he continues to evolve, Abdul remains a symbol of hope and excellence for his home, proving that talent, regardless of its origins, can find its place in the world stage.
