Even the best players of the game went through down-cycles and Nasir, as good a young player as he is, will never reach those heights no matter how he may appear to tower over teammates incapable of scoring even 10 test or ODI 100s at this point, thanks to our legendary failure to convert good starts into statistical milestones.
So please take a chill pill and watch how he meets the combined challenge of better bowlers, tougher conditions, adoration/demonization from 160 million plus, and eventually, marriage. There's hope as long as he remains single.
