Hasan Nawaz Now Second on T20I Duck List for 2025 Among ICC Full Members

Hasan Nawaz’s difficult journey in international cricket continues as the young batter was dismissed for another duck during the second T20I against Bangladesh. The 22-year-old faced six balls in Dhaka but couldn’t score any runs, adding another disappointing outing to his growing list of low scores.

This was the fifth time this year that Hasan Nawaz has been dismissed without scoring a single run. As a result, he now finds himself on an unfortunate list — the second-highest number of ducks in a single calendar year in T20 Internationals among players from ICC full-member nations.

Hasan Nawaz has now gone scoreless in five out of his ten T20 international matches — a worrying sign for a player who was once hailed as a future star. His name is also starting to appear among Pakistan’s all-time list of batters with the most T20I ducks.

It’s clear that Hasan’s early days in international cricket haven’t gone smoothly, but the selectors still have faith in him. Despite his struggles, he is expected to remain part of the playing XI for now. One reason is that he has performed well in domestic cricket, especially on home pitches where conditions match his playing style. His strong showing in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), where he was named Player of the Tournament in PSL X, shows that he has the potential to bounce back.

Many believe that blaming Hasan Nawaz alone is not fair. The entire Pakistani team has found it difficult to adjust to the playing conditions in both Bangladesh and New Zealand. The pitches in these countries have not suited the team’s strengths, and the batting order has struggled as a whole.

Looking ahead, Pakistan’s next series will be a tour to the West Indies, and this will be a key moment for Hasan Nawaz to prove himself. The criticism is already loud, and it’s likely to grow if performances don’t improve. But this is also a chance for Hasan — and the entire team — to silence the critics and regain confidence before bigger challenges like the Asia Cup and the T20 World Cup arrive.

Hasan Nawaz is still young, and many great players have had tough starts. With continued support and more experience, he may yet turn things around and become a strong part of Pakistan’s future.
