These performances underlined his prowess and versatility, earning him plaudits from teammates and opponents alike.

Rivalries, particularly with neighbouring Pakistan, brought out the best in Uahab. One memorable match saw him scoring a quickfire 60 and taking four wickets, a performance that became a rallying point for Afghanistan's growing cricketing ambitions. His ability to rise to the occasion has cemented his status as a fan favourite.
