Shakeel Haq (born 10 April 1990) is a former international cricketer who represented the Hong Kong national side between 2008 and 2009. He bowls left-arm orthodox spin and bats left-handed.
Haq was born in Pakistan, but raised in Hong Kong, first playing representative cricket for Hong Kong at under-15s level.[1] His debut for the Hong Kong under-19s came at the age of 15, in the 2005 ACC Under-19 Cup.[2] At the 2007 ACC Under-19 Elite Cup, Haq was one of Hong Kong's leading bowlers, taking six wickets in four matches (including 4/43 against Afghanistan).[3] His senior debut for Hong Kong came the following year, on a tour of Pakistan.[2] Later in 2008, Haq was selected in Hong Kong's squad for the 2008 World Cricket League Division Four tournament in Tanzania. However, he played only two matches, against Italy and Tanzania, and failed to take a wicket.[4]
At the 2009 ACC Under-19 Elite Cup in Kuwait, Haq played a key role in Hong Kong's successful qualification for the 2010 Under-19 World Cup. He took 4/17 from ten overs against Nepal,[5] and in the final against Afghanistan scored 51 runs from 104 balls, putting on a 121-run opening stand with Jamie Atkinson.[6] Later in 2009, Haq was selected in Hong Kong's senior squad for the 2009 ACC Twenty20 Cup. He played in only one match, against Singapore, which is his most recent senior appearance for Hong Kong.[2] At the 2010 Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand, Haq appeared in three of a possible six matches, against Afghanistan, England, and India. He had little success as either a batsman, scoring just 14 runs from three innings, and as a bowler failed to take a wicket from six overs.[7]
