Cricketers XI with their birthday on 14 October

#3 Shan Masood

Shan Masood has a Test century to his name

Shan Masood is a left-handed opening batsman who has represented Pakistan in 9 Tests between 2013 and 2016. Masood was born in the Middle Eastern country of Kuwait on 14 October 1989 and his talent was recognised at an early age of 13 when he was picked for the Pakistani Under-15 team.

The cricketer, who turned 27 today, made his Test debut against South Africa in 2013 and impressed with a solid 75 in his very first innings. Shan Masood scored his maiden century against Sri Lanka at Pallekele last year but a dismal outing on the tour to England saw his ouster from the national team.
