First Test - South Africa v Pakistan: Day Four
Inzamam Ul Haq is certainly one of the legends of Pakistan cricket

Inzamam-Ul-Haq is one of the biggest names in Pakistan cricket. The right hander was famous for his ability to play long innings while giving nothing away to the opposition. He rose to fame in the semi-final of the 1992 World Cup and remained one of the team's leading batsmen throughout the decade in both Test and ODIs.

Inzy, as he's popularly known, apart from playing absorbing innings, could even clobber the ball with his power strokes. Inzamam rose to the top of the ICC Test rankings in 1997 and remained in the top 20 for the rest of his career. His Test career highlights include 329 against New Zealand in Lahore in the 2001–02 season, which is the second highest Test score by a Pakistani and the twelfth highest overall. He also scored a century (184 runs) in his 100th Test, becoming only the fifth player to do so.

Inzy played 120 Test and 378 ODIs for Pakistan. He assimilated 8830 Test runs at an average of 49.60 and hit 25 centuries and 46 half centuries. He is the third highest run getter in Tests for Pakistan.
