Born on 10 March 1992, Arslan Arshad hails from a modest town where cricket was as much a part of life as the air he breathed. From the dusty lanes of his childhood, where boys would gather for impromptu matches, Arshad’s natural talent as a bowler quickly stood out. His right-arm fast bowling struck fear into even the most confident batsmen, while his right-handed batting provided a dependable lower-order option.

Arshad’s journey into the professional arena was largely due to his exceptional performance in local tournaments. It wasn't long before his raw pace and ability to generate seam movement caught the eye of talent scouts. His professional debut, a spirited performance in a league match that saw him claim five wickets, heralded the arrival of a new sensation in cricket.

Throughout his career, Arshad has been instrumental in numerous championship runs, continually proving himself in high-pressure situations. Among his most notable achievements is his remarkable spell in the National T20 Finals where he took three wickets in a single over, turning the tide for his team and earning the Man of the Match award. His ability to perform in critical moments also saw him becoming a key figure in the tri-series victory in 2020, where he topped the bowling charts with 18 scalps over the tournament.

The matches against the regional rivals are some of Arshad's most memorable performances, magnifying the unique blend of aggression and skill he brought to the game. His battle with a prominent left-handed batsman from a neighbouring team became a highlight of the season, a duel eagerly anticipated by fans and experts alike.

Arshad's distinctive bowling style, characterised by his accuracy and his knack for nipping the ball off the seam, made him a formidable opponent. Although his batting was often overshadowed by his bowling exploits, he played pivotal innings that showcased his mature understanding of the game.

Among the defining moments of his career was the sudden victory against a top-tier team in the semi-finals of a domestic tournament, where his three-wicket maiden turned a seemingly lost cause into a celebrated triumph. Arshad’s career continues to inspire budding cricketers, his journey from the city streets to the international stadiums an emblem of perseverance and passion for the sport.
