Inzamam-ul-Haq Life

Syed Inzamam-ul-Haq (born 3 March 1970), also known as Inzi, is a cricket coach and former cricketer. He was Pakistan's top run scorer in one-day internationals and the third highest run scorer for Pakistan in Test cricket.

He is the first Pakistani batsman to score 20,000 runs in international cricket.

He was the captain of Pakistan's national cricket team from 2003 to 2007.

In addition to being a prolific batsman, he also bowled a gentle left-arm spin on occasion.

Inzamam came to prominence in the 1992 Cricket World Cup's semi-finals.

Throughout the decade, he was one of the team's top batsmen, both Test and ODI cricket.

He was appointed captain of the team in 2003.

After Pakistan's early withdrawal from the 2007 Cricket World Cup, his time as captain came to an end.

Following the second Test match against South Africa, Inzamam retired from international cricket in 2007, falling three runs short of Javed Miandad as Pakistan's top run scorer in Test cricket at the time.

In the inaugural edition of the Twenty20 team, after his retirement, he joined the Indian Cricket League, captaining the Hyderabad Heroes.

He captained the Lahore Badshahs, the ICL's second edition, a team made entirely of Pakistani cricketers. Inzamam-ul-Haq is a well-known participant of the Tablighi Jamaat, an Islamic missionary group, and he remains a popular figure in Pakistan cricket. He was named as the head selector of Pakistan's national cricket team in April 2016.

Early life and family

Inzamam-ul-Haq was born in Multan, Pakistan, on March 3rd 1970, into a Syed Sunni Muslim family. During the Partition of India, his family had migrated from Hansi, Punjab Province, British India (now in Haryana, India).

His Syed family, the youngest of five siblings (four brothers and one sister), was named pir for his historical involvement in Sufism and Islam preaching, descending from Jamal-ud-Din Hansvi, a scholar and poet who was from Abu Hanifa's lineage and a direct disciple of the celebrated 12th-century Sufi poet Baba Farid. Pir Zia-ul-Haq, Inzamam's grandfather, was also a well-known religious figure. Despite this history, he was able to adopt the Islamic way of life early in his own life.

Meat One, a chain of specialty meat shops, was founded by Inzamam and Saeed Anwar in 2010. In 2017, Inzamam unveiled Legends of Inzamam ul Haq, a clothing store in Lahore.

Imam-ul-Haq's nephew Imam-ul-Haq also plays cricket for Pakistan.

Inzamam-ul-Haq Career

Domestic career

Inzamam began his football career with Multan, his hometown team. He went on to represent United Bank Limited, Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, National Bank of Pakistan, and the Water and Power Development Authority in his homeland.

Inzamam made his English county cricket debut in August 2007 at the age of 37. He joined Yorkshire County Cricket Club as a replacement for Younus Khan, who left Pakistan to play for Pakistan in the 2007 ICC World Twenty2020. He was disappointed on the whole, scoring eight on his first appearance at Scarborough's North Marine Road against Warwickshire before going back to nine and seven in his first Pro40 games. He struggled to convert his international appearance into English county cricket.

In 2007, Inzamam joined the Unanctioned Indian Cricket League (ICL), which was highly controversial. In the inaugural tournament, Inzamam captained the Hyderabad Heroes and scored 141 runs in five matches. In the 2008 series, Inzamam captained the Lahore Badshahs, which were mainly composed of Pakistani cricketers.

Inzamam's switch to the ICL was a contentious one. The Pakistan Cricket Board's position on players joining unsanctioned leagues meant he had been barred from playing in any domestic competitions in Pakistan or any association with the international team. However, Given that Inzamam had recently resigned, it was unlikely to have affected him.

According to reports, he was paid Pakistani Rs. The highest salary for any player in the league, as well as Brian Lara's likes, was 100 million (US$1,100,000).

International career

Inzamam made his (ODI) debut in a home series against West Indies in 1991 and got off to a promising start in his career by scoring 20 and 60 runs in two matches against West Indies. Against Sri Lanka, 48, 60, 101, and 117 runs were all out. When Inzamam took wicket of his 1st ball in ODI cricket early on, he had his name in electronic books early on.

Imran Khan, the Pakistani captain, was drafted by former Pakistan captain Imran Khan for the 1992 Cricket World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, but Inzamam, 22, was unheard of before the tournament. Despite not being particularly popular early on, he was pushed on through the tournament and ended up in various positions in the batting lineup, surprising many. And yet, it was his appearances at the most critical stage of the competition that made fans and summarisers take note. Inzamam made a name for herself in Pakistan's thrilling semi-finals against New Zealand at Auckland. With his team in a vulnerable situation, chasing 262 against an impressive New Zealand side, he ran his side in the final and guided them into the final. The innings was regarded as one of the finest World Cup performances ever. In that match, David Lloyd called him the shot of the tournament, he made it to a massive six.

Inzamam played a crucial role in the World Cup's final, scoring 42 runs off just 35 balls, assisting Pakistan in reaching a score of 249 after a slow start. These innings established Inzamam's reputation as a big-game player, but he was unable to imitate his World Cup triumph in later tournaments.

When Pakistan won their first ODI in the West Indies on February 27, 1993, Inzamam regard his best at least highlighted innings of 90 not out against the West Indies.

In total, Inzamam set a record for scoring the most half century in One Day Internationals, 83, although Sachin Tendulkar, Jacques Kallis, and Kumar Sangakkara have surpassed him. In the 2005 ICC World XI for both Tests and One-day Internationals, he became the second batsman to score 10,000 runs in One-day Internationals (again after Tendulkar) and was named in the ICC World XI for both Tests and One-day Internationals. He took three catches while fielding for Pakistan in the 2007 Cricket World Cup, including the last one of the match, bringing an end to his One Day career.

Inzamam made his Test debut against England at Edgbaston in 1992. He had no chance to make a difference in the match – he was not out with a score of 8. However, he demonstrated vulnerability against swing bowling in subsequent matches, resulting in his being suspended for the final Test of the season after averaging 13.20 runs per innings. Pakistan won the match by a large margin, despite the fact that the series was 2–1.

Inzamam set out to establish himself in the Test world after the England series, and he did an excellent job by leading his team to many memorable victories. In Karachi, 1994, one of the most notable incidents occurred when he made 58 not out with the tail and led Pakistan to a one-wicket victory and a 1–0 series victory. In addition to assisting his team in rising to the top-ranked batsman in the world for a brief period, he also helped his team regained top-ranked batsman status in 1995. He later went on to regain first place in the rankings in 1997. Up until his retirement, he ranked among the top ranked batsmen until his unification. He was the best batsman in the world three times and defended the title of the 3rd best batsman several times in his career, the last time being after his twin fifties against England in 2006. With scores of 148, 70, 65, and 5, Inzamam and Pakistan made a remarkable breakthrough in 1996, when Inzamam converted his batting against seam bowling, averaging 64 runs per innings.

In Lahore, he scored 329, the second highest Test score by a Pakistani and the twelfth highest overall. In his 100th Test, he scored a century (184 runs), becoming the fifth player to do so (after Colin Cowdy, Alec Stewart, Gordon Greenidge, and Javed Miandad; Ricky Ponting and Joe Root have later imitated the feat). Inzamam scored a century in each innings of the second Test match against England in 2005, becoming Pakistan's top centurion with 24 centuries, smashing Javed Miandad's record. He scored 25th in the 2nd Test against India on January 22nd, making him the 10th player to score 25 or more centuries. He was also 138 not out when the team was on the brink of losing a humiliating loss to Bangladesh, before saving the Test match and leading his team to victory. His 92 not out against South Africa in late 2006 demonstrated his ability to bat in a match winning fashion. In his 100th test match in the same away series, he scored 184 runs in his first test in Mohali against India in 2005. He still holds the record for the most consecutive half centuries against a world with nine wickets against England. This streak started on May 31st and continued until July 6, 2006. In 1996, he celebrated a century and a half at Lords. His 118 against Australia in Hobart nearly won the test for Pakistan, but Adam Gilchrist's match winning 149 points did the difference. His average in matches won is second only to Donald Bradman and Kumar Sangakkara.

Inzamam retired after the second Test against South Africa at the stadium where he made his international debut, beating Javed Miandad by 20 runs. He was out for 3 in his final innings, leaving him three runs shy of the record after falling for 14 runs in the first innings. He only needed 50 runs in his career for a batting average of 50.

Coaching career

In December 2012, Inzamam was hired as a batting consultant to Pakistan's national team on a short-term basis in preparations for the 2013 tour of India. He was appointed as the interim head coach of Afghanistan's national cricket team's tour of Zimbabwe in October 2015. After a lengthy tour of Zimbabwe, where they won both the ODIs and T20Is, Afghanistan's first series victory against a Test playing nation, his deal was renewed until December 2016. However, after nearly eight months in his service, he resigned as Afghanistan coach to become Pakistan's chief selector.

Afghanistan defeated Zimbabwe once more in the Group Stage of ICC World Twenty20, which helped them advance to the Super 10 stage as the Afghanistan cricket team's coach. His team battled Sri Lanka and South Africa, but they were unable to win, but they were unable to win. They won over the table-toppers in their last game of the tournament.
