Nasir Awais (born 6 June 1983) is a Pakistani former cricketer. Awais was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm off break.[1] He was born in Hyderabad, Sindh.[2][3]

Awais made his first-class debut for Hyderabad against Sialkot in the 2004–05 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.[4] He made his Twenty20 debut for Hyderabad Hawks against Karachi Zebras in the 2006–07 ABN-AMRO Twenty-20 Cup, and his List A debut for the Hawks against Lahore Lions in the 2006–07 ABN-AMRO Cup.[4] He also played for Pakistan Navy, Pakistan Customs, Dewan Farooq Motor Limited, Omar Associates, and Peshawar.[3]

In January 2007, Awais took 5 wickets for 59 runs against Abbottabad, at the time his best figures in first-class cricket.[5] In March 2012, he produced his best List A bowling figures of 5 for 10 and then scored an unbeaten 21 as Hyderabad Hawks defeated Karachi Zebras by five wickets in the One Day National Cup Division II.[6] The following year, playing for Hyderabad in the Regional Inter-district Senior Cricket Tournament, he claimed ten wickets in the match against Badin and also made an unbeaten 54.[7]

Awais also featured prominently for Pakistan Navy in departmental cricket. In May 2013, he took 5 for 43 against Noman Traders in the Hinopak Trophy KCCA Inter-departmental Cricket League.[8] In March 2014, he took 5 for 74 in the second innings to finish with match figures of 11 for 152 against Sindh Police in the Patron's Trophy.[9] A year later, again against Sindh Police, he took 6 for 60 in the first innings and followed it with 2 wickets in the second innings as Navy closed in on victory.[10]

In September 2017, Awais was named in Peshawar's squad for the 2017–18 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy through the player draft system.[11] He played his last first-class matches for Peshawar in that tournament.[4]
