Saad Bin Zafar is a left-arm orthodox spinner who represents Canada in international cricket. Bowling slow left-arm, he operates in the traditional mould of the discipline, using flight and turn to trouble batsmen.
A left-handed batter as well, Zafar has accumulated 1031 runs across his ODI career. His role within the Canadian setup centres on his bowling, where he brings the experience of competing at international level in a format that demands consistency and control.
Zafar's selection reflects Canada's reliance on home-grown spin talent in the one-day arena. The slow left-arm bowler has been part of the national squad's attempts to build depth in a bowling department that must compete against established cricket nations.
His career trajectory with Canada positions him as part of the country's longer-format development, where opportunities to play ODI cricket remain limited but valuable for player development and international exposure.
