Sohail Khan
A raw late swinger of the red-ball who bowls at a lively pace, Sohail Khan is one of the many cricketers who have benefitted from the Rashid Latif Cricket Academy (RLCA). Sohail Khan, popularly known as Sohail Pathan in the domestic circuit, played his junior cricket in Karachi after moving from Malakand.
After a year of practicing in the nets and working on his fitness on a consistent basis, Sohail Khan had a demolishing entry and gained instant stardom in his maiden first-class season in 2007 for Sui Southern Gas Corporation (SSGC). He took 21 wickets in his first few matches for the club which led to the promotion of the team into first-class cricket shortly afterward.
Khan made his first-class debut playing for SSGC in the 2007-08 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy against the Pakistani Customs on October 26, 2007.

Sohail Khan (Pashto: سہیل خان; born 6 March 1984), also known as Sohail Pathan,[2] is a Pakistani cricketer. A right-arm fast bowler, he gained instant recognition during his debut first-class season in 2007 when he broke Fazal Mahmood's record for the best bowling figures by a Pakistani in a first-class match.[3] Shortly afterwards he made his international debut, in an ODI against Zimbabwe. Khan was part of the team for 2015 Cricket World Cup.[4]
