Moin Khan

Moin Khan Biography
Renowned for his combative skills, Moin Khan has spent most of his career slugging it out with Rashid Latif for the keeper's gloves. His batting ability has generally kept him in front although Latif is a better keeper. An effective rather than stylish batsman, Moin relishes a crisis and has held together Pakistan's lower order time and again. His quick feet and improvisation are even more productive in one-day cricket where he scores at speed. Behind the stumps, he is the chirpiest of keepers and the stump mike has revealed his full repertoire to the world. "Well bowled" and "shabash" are his most familiar soundbites. As captain, Moin struggled to get his way amid Pakistan's incessant in-fighting and was too defensive, as when England triumphed in the gloom of Karachi. Moin played through most of the 2003-04 season, missing only the last two Tests against India due to injury. However, his wicketkeeping form wasn't entirely convincing, and with Kamran Akmal staking a strong claim, Moin's days as an international cricketer might be drawing to a close.

Imran Nazir

Imran Nazir Biography
Imran Nazir an other gift of Allah for the Pakistan in the cricket player’s team. But the distrust was that as he offers more genuine promise than most. He is predominantly strong off the back foot, loves forcing all the way through the covers. His hostile behavior towards his cricket passion has had him made as a one-day player. In the initial period of his entrance he couldn’t perform well in his first few Tests.

Ultimately, on the other hand, Glenn McGrath and Co noticed his method and deficient of footwork rather cruelly in two Tests matches against Australia. The preference of Mohammad Hafeez, Yasir Hameed, Imran Farhat and Taufeeq Umar moved him upward level, which enhance his career charm and He became National squad against South Africa in 2006-07 because of the consistency in performances in in-land matches. And he was selected for World Cup 2007 team on his volatile performance 39-ball 57-scores, but his three failure match series won’t polish his performance and become a slight decline of his image in the Pakistani people. Over all his performance made him one of the best fielders in the Pakistan cricket team, so he is considered as to be the 1st Pakistani to flip-flop (while intercepting a square cut).
His career-best performance of 160 adjacent to Zimbabwe in the World Cup retained him for the following such tours to Abu Dhabi and Scotland whereas Imran also is being elected for Pakistani cricket training camps. Then he was selected in Twenty20 World Championship and rewarded by a “Central Contract” in July 2007 before representing Pakistan in the home ODI series in opposition to South Africa. Later-on he coupled with the unsanctioned Indian Cricket League and performed very well for the Lahore Badshahs, but when the PCB pardoned players to have severed ties with the ICL, Imran Nazir was soon called back into the ODI side.

Saeed Anwar

Saeed Anwar Biography
Born in Karachi on September 6th 1968, the Pakistan Captain Saeed Anwar has become one of the best batsmen in the world through hard work, dedication combined with his exceptional talent. He has a tremendous eye, excellent timing, and makes use of his wrists better that any other batsmen in the game. He can find the gaps at will, and more often that not, a little push from Saeed simply races away to the
boundry. Strong on all sides of the wicket, Saeed’s favorite shot is the cut shot, which he plays better than any other Pakistani batsmen.Very strong on the off side, Saeed has the ability to play some
glorious cover drives that are an absolute delight to watch.His off side shots are so good, that he is considered to be the best off side player, among left handed batsmen in the world.The reason for his immaculate off side play is because of hissound technique. He is solid in defence, yet can destroy any bowling attack in the world in a matter of minutes. His strength in timing and the ability to play on the rise, combined with
excellent execution, makes him the best opener to ever come from Pakistan…far ahead of the likes of Soahil,Raja,and the Mohammad brothers.
As a first class cricketer, Saeed used to bat in the middle order however once he made his ODI debut in Australia, he was thrust into the opener’s role. He began opening the innings in domestic cricket, and made his way back into the ODI side as a specialist opener. Despite, having lost out on precious years due to politics in the PCB, Saeed never lost hope. He made most of the limited opportunity’s that Imran Khan gave him, yet he was over looked for the likes of Shoaib Mohammad and Ramiz Raja…players who never performed outside of Pakistan.In 1993, Saeed created a new world record..he hit three back to back ODI hundreds in Sharjah, a feat never before achieved by any Pakistani player. He was now finally a permanant member of the ODI side, under Wasim Akram. However, he was still not considered for a test spot..once again a huge error by the selectors.In 1994 however, Saeed finally got a chance to show his worth as a test match plater. He hit a mammoth 169 in New Zealand and combined it with some important half centuries in the rest of the series.
Saeed is an excellent team man and gets along extremely well with his team mates, who have nothing but praise for him..as well as fans and press alike. Saeed is also a Computer Engineer, and his wife Lubna, is a doctor who takes care of him when he gets his regulardose of flu:) Pakistan’s best batsman..is a great asset to the game..and Inshallah will continue to play for Pakistan…for years to come.

Aamir Sohail

Aamir Sohail Biography
A combative left-hand opener, Aamer Sohail was a predominantly back-foot player whose forte was improvisation. He loved to attack, and almost found it impossible to control his aggression. He showed no fear, epitomised by his baiting of Venkatesh Prasad in a 1996 World Cup quarter-final in front of a hostile Bangalore crowd. He was an effective left-arm spinner, more a one-day bowler than a Test wicket-taker. Aamir played a big part in Pakistan's World Cup triumph in 1992, and famously told Ian Botham that he might want to send his mother-in-law in to bat after Botham was controversially given out for 0 in the final. He captained Pakistan at the height of the match-fixing controversy, and was one of the whistle-blowers. His career suffered as a result, and he left the international scene early to work in broadcasting, where he might have tried harder to suppress his personal prejudices.

Wasim Akram

Wasim Akram Biography
Wasim Akram (born June 3, 1966 in Lahore, Punjab) is a former Pakistani cricketer. He was a left-arm fast bowler and left-handed batsman, who represented the Pakistani cricket team in Tests and One Day Internationals. Widely regarded as one of the finest fast bowlers ever, Akram holds world records for the most wickets taken in List A cricket (881), and is second only to Muttiah Muralitharan in terms of ODI wickets (502). He is considered to be one of the pioneers of reverse swing bowling. The revolutionary nature of reverse swing initially resulted in accusations of ball tampering, although reverse swing has now been accepted as a legitimate feature of the game. Akram's later career was also tarnished with accusations of match fixing, although these remain unproven
