Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
During his formative years, Ateeq topped Warwickshire's performance charts consistently at youth level cricket and was tipped to be the most-likely-player -from-Warwickshire to represent England after Ian Bell and Chris Woakes. The praise and promise, however, fizzled out with each passing season and it took nearly five years for Javid to prove his mettle on the big stage.
Having made his First-Class debut at the age of 17 (in 2009), Javid had a bizarre start to his career with 11 of his first 17 completed innings yielding single-digit scores and making little or no impression with the ball. In 2013, a year that defined Ateeq Javid, the batsman, he produced dollops of runs and notched up his maiden First-Class hundred (versus Somerset) while at it. He also maintained a healthy average of 44 - with the bat - during the season.
Javid, however, ran out of luck in 2014 as Jonathan Trott returned to County cricket post the Ashes (2013) debacle, and with emerging talents like Sam Hain, it only got tougher and tougher to stake a claim in red-ball cricket for the Birmingham-born lad. And thus, he was majorly restricted to limited-over games in that season and, surprisingly, proved to be a huge threat with the ball than with the bat.
His moment of glory, though, sparked during the semi-final of Natwest T20 Blast in 2014 when he dismissed Kevin Pietersen off his first ball of the game and the Birmingham side, eventually, went on to become the champions of the Blast thumping Lancashire in a closely-contested final game. As a result of his white-ball credentials during 2014, Warwickshire signed a new three-year contract with Javid in a bid to retain the Club's success rate in limited over games.
With time, the Club's expectations and Javid's performances became inversely proportional and therefore, Wawickshire released him at the end of 2017 season. Javid didn't feature in County Championship in 2017 while he managed just one game the following season which, eventually, led to his exit at the club. Later, he was signed by Leicestershire on a two-year deal ahead of the 2018 season.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Ateeq Javid was, for a while, viewed as the next top player from the Warwickshire conveyor belt that had produced Ian Bell and Chris Woakes, but, for one reason or another, he has not been able to build on his early promise.
A standout player at every stage in the Warwickshire youth teams from the age of 10, Ateeq represented England U19 and made his first-class debut in 2009 aged just 17.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it proved a struggle - it took 18 innings to register his maiden half-century and 11 of his first 17 completed innings produced single-figure scores - but 2013 was something of a breakthrough season. Ateeq played 11 Championship games, averaged just over 44 and scored a maiden first-class century against Somerset.
But, with Jonathan Trott returning and Sam Hain breaking through, he was unable to retain a regular place in the side in 2014 and was obliged to settle for a role in Warwickshire's limited-overs teams. While he struggled for opportunities with the bat, he made some telling contributions with his waspish off-spin - he dismissed Kevin Pietersen with his first delivery in the semi-final as Birmingham won the NatWest T20 Blast - and signed a new three-year deal at the end of the season to underline his place in the club's plans in all formats.
He was unable to establish himself, though. He didn't feature in the Championship side at all in 2016 and only once in 2017 and was released at the end of that season. He joined Leicestershire on a two-year deal. An opportunity to open against Durham brought his only half-century of the season in 10 attempts in 2018.
