1996 World Cup Profile:
Ata-ur-Rehman has emerged as the pick of the new Pakistan pacebowling generation, recruited to provide strength and support to the Wasim-Waqar combination. Ata`s international career has thus far been in periods of one or two tours, but the World Cup will provide him an opportunity to fix his place in the side. Ata made his debut in the away tour against England in 1992 at the age of 17, and impressed in his first appearance, even when Wasim and Waqar were the talk of the tour. He was also among the wickets in the subsequent tours to the West Indies and New Zealand. Tall and well-built, Ata has the characteristics of the genuine right-arm fast bowler. A good maintainer of line and length, and an excellent mover of the old ball, he can play both a containing and an attacking role in the middle of the limitedovers innings.help@cricinfo.com
