Aqib Nabi Dar: Another Parvez Rasool in the making

After Kashmir’s shining star, Parvez Rasool, another young cricketer residing in the far flung area of Kashmir Valley, has grabbed eye balls with his terrific performance in the national tournament at Rajkot, Gujarat.
Aaqib Nabi Dar, who hails from Sheeri, Baramulla, currently playing under-19 national cricket tournament at Rajkot Gujarat has shown stellar performances in the matches played in this tournament.
Aaqib who has been selected from Kashmir’s Under-19 cricket team has scored 103 runs and got two wickets against Sourashtra on Monday.
A young cricketer, who is pursuing graduation at Baramulla has earlier scored several centuries in the tournaments played outside the state. “It is Aaqib’s fourth century since he started playing national tournaments. We are really proud of him,” said his family family members.
Aaqib belongs to a poor family due to which he cannot afford necessary things which would help him to play better in the play field.
His family said that the matches in the tournament are going on and said that they hope their son will show better performances in the upcoming matches.“Our son is very much talented and to score more and more in the upcoming matches is not even a big deal for him. His talent needs to get exposed so that he would get a chance in International cricket as well,” family said.
Giving information about the young cricketer, family said that his journey of cricket starts from ‘galli’. “He has played several tournaments in the valley where he has got various trophies including, man of the match, man of the series and catch of the match,” they said.
