A right-hand compact batsman and a wicketkeeper of an unusually large build, Ashraf came into contention for Test selection when he scored 1053 runs in addition to 37 dismissals in the 1980-81 domestic season. He began his Test career against Sri Lanka scoring prolifically in 1981 but was sidelined after Wasim Bari's return. Even after Bari's retirement he was Pakistan's second choice behind Saleem Yousuf and appeared briefly for Pakistan against the touring English and Australian sides of 1987-88 and 1988-89 respectively.
