Known for his adaptable batting, capable of both aggressive assaults and patient innings-building, Adeel was the quintessential batsman for any situation. His batting technique combined classical elegance with modern flair, making him a linchpin in Pakistan’s batting line-up.

Over the years, Adeel has notched up several landmark achievements. A particularly memorable innings took place during the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy final against India. His composed century in a high-pressure chase helped Pakistan clinch the trophy and silenced critics, marking one of the most iconic moments in his career.

Adeel’s batting brilliance is complemented by his versatile capabilities with the ball, often emerging as an unexpected threat in tight situations. Described often as an underutilised yet effective bowler, his off-spin has broken partnerships and tilted many a game in Pakistan’s favour.
