	The Hindu : Young guns blaze away
		Hameed does appear to be the type of top-order batsman that Pakistan seeks; he is compact in defence, handles the moving ball well using his feet to cover the swing and is judicious in his stroke production.
		It must not have been an easy decision for the Pakistan team-management when Hameed was picked ahead of the more exciting Imran Farhat when the decision to include Afridi as an opener for the second ODI was taken.
		If Kaif and Hameed have soared, notwithstanding the burdens and expectations of an India-Pakistan series, the young bowlers have also put their hands up at the crunch too.

		Yasir Hameed stamped his presence in international cricket with two Test centuries on debut - against Bangladesh at Karachi in August 2003 - becoming only the second player to achieve that feat.
		Frail of build, Yasir's game is all about pure timing, and the elegance and ease with which he picks gaps in the infield is remarkable.
		The early signs are promising, but Yasir has, of late, shown a worrying tendency to waste his starts, making pretty 20s and then throwing it away, often by flailing at wide ones outside off.

		Indian vice-captain Rahul Dravid must not have thought in his wildest dreams that his failure to recognise Yasir Hameed at Rawalpindi would serve as a “wake-up call” for the young opener who emerged as the hero in Pakistan's back-to-back wins in the ongoing one-day series.
		Yasir, who started his Test career last year in Karachi against Bangladesh with two hundreds on debut, was irked when Dravid mistook him for a nets bowler before the Pindi match.
		Yasir was in the same lift with Dravid and Indian assistant manager Amrit Mathur when the Indian vice-captain asked him whether he was the same bowler who had bowled to the Indians in the nets.

		Yuvraj (65, 76b, 7x4, 1x6) and Hameed (98, 116b, 14x4) were the stand-out performers with the bat, Shabbir and Pathan picked up the bulk of the wickets for their respective sides, but this match wasn’t decided on individual brilliance alone.
		Where Yuvraj’s was an essay marked by circumspection, the right-handed Hameed’s was a free-flowing, uninhibited innings.
