About me / Bio:
Abdul Qadir was a Pakistani cricketer who is widely regarded as one of the greatest leg spin bowlers of all time. He played 67 Tests and 104 ODIs for Pakistan from 1977 to 1993, taking 236 and 132 wickets respectively. He was known for his variety of deliveries, including the googly, the flipper, the leg break and the top spinner. He had a flamboyant bowling action and a charismatic personality that made him a crowd favourite. He was the first Pakistani bowler to take 200 Test wickets and the first bowler in history to take 100 wickets in both Tests and ODIs. He was also the first Pakistani to take nine wickets in a Test innings, which he achieved twice against England in 1987. He captained Pakistan in five ODIs and later became a chief selector and a commentator. He was awarded the Pride of Performance by the Government of Pakistan in 1989 and was inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame in 2022. He died of a heart attack in Lahore in 2019 at the age of 63. He is remembered as a legend of Pakistan cricket and a master of the leg spin.
