Youngest Test debutant from first 8 Test playing nations

#5 Pakistan- Mushtaq Mohammad, 15 years 124 days

Mushtaq Mohammad

Former Pakistan batsman Hasan Raza was thought to have made his debut at the age of 14 years and 227 days, but his date of birth was in dispute and the Pakistan cricket authorities eventually withdrew his claim to that record. That makes Mushtaq Mohammad the youngest Test debutant in Pakistan's history and indeed, the youngest in cricket history, having made his debut for his country at the age of 15 years and 124 days.

He made his debut in a Test match against the West Indies at Lahore and had a poor debut in a game in which Pakistan lost by an innings. He made 14 and 4 and took no wickets. That being said, he soon found his place in the world and went on to play 57 Test matches, in a career that lasted around two decades. Mushtaq made 10 centuries at an average of 39.17 and also took 79 wickets with his leg-spin.
