Hasan Ali was born into a Punjabi Jat family of the Malhi clan to Abdul Aziz Malhi, whom Ali considers a source of inspiration for his life. His hometown is Ladhe Wala Waraich, located in the Gujranwala District. His family encouraged him to play cricket from an early age. Two local cricketers, his elder brother Ata-ur-Rehman (not to be confused with the former international cricketer) and Ansar Zafar Rathore, were his childhood coaches and mentors.
Ali trained at Rathore’s Young Combine Star Club in Gujranwala, where other international cricketers have also trained, including Imran Nazir. Ali’s coaching began at the age of 10, and due to his rapid progress and dedicated physical fitness routine of up to eight hours a day, by the age of 14, he was selected for the city’s U16 side.
