Naved Arif is a left-arm paceman who signed for Sussex in 2011. Thanks to a Danish wife he is not classed an overseas player and took 15 wickets in his first four first-class matches in England. He began his career with Gujranwala Cricket Association in Pakistan and made his first-class debut in 2002 against Hyderabad, taking 5 for 28. He has also played for Sailkot in Pakistan and played Lancashire league cricket for Rawtenstall Cricket Club the season before Sussex signed him. It was at Rawtenstall where he apparently earned his nickname 'Barry' (as in the Great Barry Arif) that Sussex have since adopted.
