[edit] Early days
Nasril was a product of the Bukit Jalil Sports School. He participated in the 2002 Sukma Games, representing Malaysian Schools Sports Council[1]. For the 2006 Sukma Games, however, he represented the state of Perak.[2]
Nasril spent some time playing for Perak FA in their reserve squad, but an injury to first-choice keeper Hamsani Ahmad, coupled with the loss of form of usual back-up keeper Tay Sin Kiat forced coach Steve Darby to play Nasril.
[edit] Career
Nasril made his first team debut on December 4, 2005 in a Charity Shield match against Selangor which Perak won 4-1. Nasril's performance drew the plaudits of the media and coach Darby.
Perak continued to keep faith in Nasril, even after first-choice Hamsani Ahmad returned from injury. On 24 January 2006, just slightly more than a month after his first team debut, Nasril was called up for centralized training with the national squad and subsequently featured in their friendlies against New Zealand.
Nasril was nominated as one of the nation's top three goalkeepers in the inaugural Malaysian Football Awards, held in 2006. The other contenders were Terengganu's Syamsuri Mustaffa and Negri Sembilan's Azizon Abdul Kadir. Syamsuri Mustaffa eventually won the award.[3]
[edit] Blackburn interest
Reports surfaced in September 2006 that Blackburn Rovers were keeping tabs on Nasril. It was reported Rovers scout Mike Riggs wanted to give Nasril a trial.It could be a problem getting a work permit though as Malaysia are 154th in the FIFA rankings and a national team needs to be in the top 70 to be considered for the English Premier League. However, as of April 2007, nothing has materialized and interest seems to have cooled down.[4]
