Timeline
Due to a Spot-fixing scandal involving several Pakistani players, Shafiq was flown to England as a replacement player 48 hours before the first ODI, In the first ODI he scored a quickfire 19 runs from 10 deliveries, including 4 boundaries against English bowler Tim Bresnan, and he followed it up in the 2nd ODI with his maiden ODI half-century, 50 runs off of 58 deliveries.
He played out the rest of the 5-match series to finish with 120 runs at an average of 24.
Ahead of a series of matches against South Africa in the United Arab Emirates, Shafiq both kept his place in Pakistan's ODI squad and earned his first selection in their Test squad.
Shafiq opened the batting in the first two matches, but after only scoring 19 and 1 he was moved back down the order to bat at number 4, where he scored 43 and 36.
For the final match of the ODI series he was replaced by Mohammad Yousuf, who had only arrived in the UAE the day before the match.
Shafiq did not play in the first match of the Test series, but after Umar Akmal was dismissed playing a rash shot in the first match, Shafiq took his place in the side for the second Test.

Asad Shafiq made his first-class debut at 21 years old for Karachi Whites against Hyderabad at Niaz Stadium on 21 October 2007.

Shafiq was less successful in his second season of first-class cricket.
He did score a century against Khan Research Laboratories, but it was his only of the season and he only averaged 23.46 in the 2008–09 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.
His major successes of the season came in one-day cricket.
He scored 360 runs at an average of 72.00 in the 2008–09 Royal Bank of Scotland Cup, including two centuries, and finished with an average of 54.14 in all one-day matches for the season.

As a reward for his stellar form, he was selected to play for Pakistan A in a series of one-day matches against England Lions.
Despite having been the top run-scorer in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy and one of only two players to score more than 1,000 runs in the 2009–10 season, Shafiq was overlooked by national selectors for Pakistan's Test squad to face England.
Shafiq's lack of selection, as well as a number of other Karachi players being overlooked, caused the Karachi City Cricket Association to condemn the national selectors for allegedly deliberately ignoring Karachi-based players.
Instead, Shafiq was selected to play for Pakistan A on a tour of Sri Lanka.
Shafiq was named as a reserve player for Pakistan's later ODI series against England, but he stayed in Sri Lanka with the A team, where he scored a run-a-ball century in a one-day match against Sri Lanka A.
Shafiq made it into the national team for the first time in the 2010 Asia Cup when he was selected as part of Pakistan's 15-man squad for the tournament.

Shafiq made his ODI debut in a dead rubber match against Bangladesh at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium.
Shafiq made his Test cricket debut on 20 November 2010 against South Africa at Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
He had his first opportunity to bat on Day 3 of the Test match, coming in after two wickets had fallen in an over.
Shafiq navigated a tricky period of play, particularly playing well against spin bowling, and scored a half-century.
He had a 105-run partnership with Misbah-ul-Haq and scored 61 runs from 118 balls.
Shafiq was called into Pakistan's squad for a Twenty20 series in New Zealand after fast bowler Sohail Tanvir was pulled out due to a knee injury.
He made his Twenty20 International debut against New Zealand at Seddon Park on 28 December 2010.
In the two matches he played, Shafiq only scored 6 and 8, both times scoring at less than a run every ball.
Shafiq was also part of Pakistan's squad for their Test series in New Zealand.
In the first Test, when Pakistan were in trouble at 4/107, Shafiq fought back with Misbah-ul-Haq, the two of them reaching the end of the second day with an unbeaten 128-run partnership.
In August 2018, he was one of thirty-three players to be awarded a central contract for the 2018–19 season by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
In September 2019, he was named in Sindh's squad for the 2019–20 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy tournament.
