Pakistani Players of the Ages

Just thought of this biding my time through a boring afternoon. If you could select one Pakistan player to represent a discipline for every decade of cricket, who would it be? Here are a few choice I came up with:

Batsmen of the 60s: Hanif Mohammad (no close competition here)
Batsmen of the 70s: Zaheer Abbas (some may say Asif Iqbal or Majid, but Zaheer has the better record)
Batsmen of the 80s: Javed Miandad (dominated the 80s, was the batting key the same way Imran was our bowling key)
Batsmen of the 90s: Saeed Anwar (had a great stretch from 93 onwards, was always the one the opposition wanted to get rid of, had a hand in almost all our great overseas victories)
Batsman of the 2000s: Inzamam (since the world cup '03, has coverted all his class into performance)

Bowler of the 60s: No idea, what a barren time for Pakistan
Bowler of the 70s: Safraz? Again, hard to say
Bowler of the 80s: Imran (managed to bowl with success against all sides on all turfs, special mention to Abdul Qadir)
Bowler of the 90s: Wasim Akram (Waqar was probably more devasting in the first half of the 90s, and Mushtaq and Saqlain blossomed in the second half, but Wasim was potent throughout)
Bowler of the 2000s: Hard to say, Shoaib has been erratic and I'm not sure Danish qualifies yet

Agree? Disagree?

I would have Shoaib for 2000's.

Rana/Asif are still progressing, aint been with us long and i dont quite like the sound of picking Dani

Bowler of the 50's (1952-1962): Fazal Mahmood

I'd agree with all those choices although Imran had come of age by 76 so he may take Sarfraz spot as the bowler of the 70s

60s really were a problem for bowling. Fazal Mahmood retired and we had Majid and Asif opening the bowling

i fully agree with you mate
my dad n grand dad used to tell me about how great fazal mehmoud was. he was definatley an asset in that era

2000: its deffo Shoaib ! look at his performances awsome bowling . . . .

how about Qadir for spin. he kept the googlies going and tauseef ahmed with his off spin

In the 1960s, Pakistan played only 30 Test Matches...

Batsmen on the decade were Hanif Mohammad, Mushtaq Mohammad, Saeed Ahmed, Javed Burki and Imtiaz Ahmed...

Bowlers were Intikhab Alam, Haseeb Ahsan, Naseem-ul-Ghani, Antao D'Souza, Mohammad Munaf (who played for Holland later on in World Cup when he was 40+), Arif Butt, Mohammad Farooq and Pervez Sajjad...

An amazing test match happened in this decade, when 6 players made their debt for Pakistan in one single test match: Which one was that ?

Looks like nobody knows the answer Ilyas bhai. Care to give us the answer?

and Daoud remembers like it yesterday

Asif Iqbal and Majid's opening test match - where they opened the bowling too! One off test Vs Aus in October 1964!

An amazing test match happened in this decade, when 6 players made their debt for Pakistan in one single test match: Which one was that ?
Yes: That was Pakistan Vs Aussies, where both opening batsmen and opening bowlers for Pakistan made debuts: One batsman made 166 and the other made 95: Who were they? Opening bowlers took 2 wicket each in the first innings and in second innings, except for two players including himself, nine bowlers were used by Pakistani Captain Hanif Mohammad...
