If he is genrating 90 mph with this action than with just slight adjustment with his jump he can generate 95+ pace. All express bowlers (Shoaib, Lee, Tait) utilize their jump and momentum for pace. 2. He is not utilizing his right arm. If he just bring his right arm a bit straight up in a line thn he can controll his wrist position and swing. 3. Folow thru is satisfactory. he should be careful with short folow thru. If he bent his back with this folow thru thn it might hurt his back. But his good buillt can help him to cater this. he must continue gym work and swimming specially. 4. Wrist positioning is good. he can swing the ball both ways with this action and wrsit control. his action remind me Saleem Jafar. Above all a bright prospect. these are just observations. He should be playing ODI or tests before playing T20. Anxious to see him in green shirts with golden star. Another Supernova ???????????????????

Agree with #4, action reminds me of Saleem Jaffer.

Does someone have todays highlights, those might give us a better idea of his action and potential.

That's why it would be very easy to tweek his wrist position at 1:20 to match exactly to wasim Akram's. And thats why he couls be another successful bowler for Pakistan.

That is the first thing I noticed too. his wrist loads up just like akram.
Quite evident from front as well.
Either he mold his action on Akram or he is just that way. In either case smooth nice action, Akram's was more of a hurried one.

Did anyone else think that Rahat was being given a 2 second electric shock after every wicket? It was like AHHHHHHHH, then utter silence as he just walked over all unexcited to his team mates!
