#1 Taufeeq Umar
Trending
Taufeeq Umar announced his arrival in Test cricket by scoring an efficient hundred against Bangladesh on his debut Test in 2001. In subsequent matches, the left-hander showed promise but it was his valiant 88 against Australia in Colombo in 2002 that stamped his reputation as a reliable opener for Pakistan.
Till 2004 the opening batsman was a permanent member of Pakistan’s team. However, a series of below par scores against India resulted in his omission from the national side. By piling huge scores in domestic cricket, he kept himself under the selector’s radar and was called back in 2010.
Umar scored 236 against Sri Lanka in 2011 but he failed to deliver consistently and hence was once again dropped from the team. He played his last Test in 2014 against New Zealand.
