Mohammad Sami, born 24 February 1981 is a Pakistani cricketer who plays as fast bowler and is considered to be one of the fastest bowlers in Pakistan after Shoaib Akhtar. Sami is regarded as one of the fastest bowlers in cricket and has the ability to swing the cricket ball at high pace. Sami earned the ignominy of bowling the longest over in One Day International cricket during the Asia Cup match against Bangladesh in 2004. Sami joined the Indian Cricket League following the tour of India in December 2007. He played for the Lahore Badshahs, a team composed entirely of Pakistani cricketers, during the Indian Premier League’s second Twenty20 tournament. In 2009-10, he was recalled back to the Pakistan team and on 3 January 2010, during Pakistan’s Test match series against Australia, he played at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Australia and took 3 wickets for 27 runs in the first innings of the second Test match. On 19 April he was selected in the Pakistan squad as a replacement for the injured fast bowler Umar Gul, in the 2010 ICC World Twenty20 cricket tournament to be held in the West Indies. Sami was recalled and played against South Africa in the middle east in November 2010. In May 2012 Mohammad Sami received another recall and was announced in the squad that toured Sri Lanka in June 2012, cause of his amazing performances in the Bangladesh premier league. In 2013, sami was retained by the BPL team, Duronto Rajshahi to play as the main fast bowler, but cause of disagreements between PCB and BCB no Pakistani player (including sami) was allowed to play in the BPL. This was a big loss for Duronto, because Sami was the highest wicket-taker last season. In May 2015, Sami was selected for the T/20 side that is going to play Zimbabwe in Lahore. Sami has been included in Pakistan squad for the 2016 ICC World Twenty20.
