Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
In the 2015-16 Ranji season, he was instrumental with the ball and bagged 51 wickets, becoming only the 6th bowler in the history to do so. To prove that it wasn't an one-off fluke, he repeated the performance in the next season, finishing as the highest wicket-taker with 56 scalps and that helped Jharkhand to make it to the semi-finals of Ranji Trophy.
IPL through the years
One of the most under-rated spinners in the domestic circuit, Shahbaz Nadeem has a knack of being consistent with his probing lines on and around off-stump. A regular in the Delhi Daredevils set-up since 2011 IPL, Nadeem had to fight reputations and rewards to claim a regular spot in the playing eleven. His tally of games played in IPL 2015, 2016 and 2017 were 4, 4 and 7 games respectively. Surprisingly, Delhi bid for him yet again in the 2018 auctions and the left-arm spinner ended up playing six games at an average of 37.00 with a healthy economy rate of 7.00. He was eventually bagged by Sunrisers Hyderabad ahead of the 2019 edition as a part of trading that saw Shikhar Dhawan move to Delhi at the expense of Vijay Shankar, Shahbaz Nadeem and Abhishek Sharma.
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Shahbaz Nadeem seemed destined to join the long list of high-quality Indian spinners who, unfortunately, never got to play international cricket when, out of the blue, he got called up to cover for Kuldeep Yadav on the eve of the Ranchi Test of 2019-20 against South Africa. The Test was being played at his home association; it was his proximity to the venue that ended his long pursuit of the India cap.
In the years leading up to that debut, Nadeem's left-arm spin had done all that could be asked of it. He had taken 424 first-class wickets, 81 of which came for India A at an average of under 30. He also held the record for the best figures in List A cricket: 8 for 10 against Rajasthan in 2018-19. He ended three seasons with more than 40 first-class wickets, but perhaps playing for Jharkhand, who usually played against weaker teams in the Ranji Trophy, went against him. It is tough to make it to the Indian team, but when Nadeem was the highest wicket-taker in the Ranji Trophy in 2015-16, he wasn't even selected for Rest of India in the Irani Trophy.
So hard did Nadeem have to work for the India cap that he was 30 by the time he earned it, and had, among his team-mates, made the earliest first-class debut, as a 15-year-old back in 2004-05. He is one of the few to have played domestic cricket with MS Dhoni, his Jharkhand team-mate who didn't need to play for Jharkhand once he made it out of the drudgery of playing for a small-time domestic team.
Nadeem carries all the attributes of a successful Indian spinner: accuracy, long spells, subtle changes of trajectory, pace and seam positions, and most importantly, perseverance. He didn't seem to have one attribute for the first 15 years of his career: luck, which finally smiled on him following an injury to Yadav.
