Muzamil Sherzad (Pashto: موزاميل شیرزاد; born 5 October 2002) is an Afghan-Irish cricketer who plays for Leinster Lightning. Originally from Afghanistan, Sherzad played for the Ireland under-19 cricket team at the 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup in the West Indies.
Originally from Jalalabad in Afghanistan, Sherzad played tape ball cricket in the streets. In 2017, his mother paid for him to travel around 8,300 km (5,200 mi) to get to Ireland so he could work with his uncle. The journey took the best part of nine months, with him crossing through Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia, Italy and France with other immigrants. While in Croatia, he got into a truck to get to Milan, Italy. From Cherbourg in Northern France, he got into another truck to get onto a ferry. When he arrived in Dublin, he was forced to sleep in a park overnight, as he did not know where his uncle lived. After getting to a refugee centre, Sherzad was placed with a family via an agency, until they located his uncle in Tipperary.
