One of the tallest cricketers around, Mohammed Irfan is a product of rural Pakistan, hailing from the eastern Pakistan town of Gaggu Mandi. He worked on increasing his pace and fitness. His efforts paid off in 2012 as he was picked for the limited-overs series in India, where he was regularly quicker than 140kph, and troubled the batsmen with extra bounce.

The tall Pakistani pacer will represent the Northern Warriors in the 6th season of the Abu Dhabi T10 League.
