About me / Bio:
Hanif Mohammad was a Pakistani cricketer who played for the national team in 55 Test matches between 1952 and 1969. He was widely regarded as one of the best batsmen in the world and earned the nickname "Little Master" for his skill and temperament. He holds several records in Test cricket, including the longest innings (970 minutes for 337 runs against West Indies in 1958), the highest score in the second innings (337), and the first triple century by an Asian player. He also scored 499 runs in a first-class match in 1959, which was the highest individual score until 1994. He was a versatile player who could also bowl, keep wicket, and captain the team. He was part of the famous Mohammad family that produced four other Test cricketers: his brothers Wazir, Mushtaq, Raees, and Sadiq. His son Shoaib and grandson Shehzar also played first-class cricket. Hanif was awarded the Pride of Performance by the Government of Pakistan in 1959 and was named as a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1968. He was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame in 2009. He died of lung cancer at the age of 81 in Karachi.
