World Twenty20 - Ahmed Shehzad

Pakistan's Ahmed Shehzad in action

Team: Pakistan

At 17, Ahmed Shehzad will be the youngest player competing in the World Twenty20.

Having made his first-class debut at 15, Shahzad has benefitted from Pakistan's faith in fast-tracking raw talent and already has four one-day internationals under his belt.

An aggressive right-hand opening batsman, the teenager has flourished in Pakistan's youth teams.

And although his country's prospects of international cricket have suffered, Pakistanis have high hopes for Shehzad.
