In full flow, he was a sight for sore eyes.
After he had established himself as a household name in every cricket playing country, the younger generation fell in love with the sport and consequently, we produced a battery of champion world-class batsmen such as Javed Miandad, Mudassar Nazar, Mohsin Khan, Saleem Malik, Ramiz Raja, Ijaz Ahmed, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Aamir Sohail, Saeed Anwar, Mohammad Yousuf, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq, Azhar Ali, Asad Shafiq and Babar Azam.“Zaheer’s contributions to cricket were beyond the field of play when as an administrator, he served the PCB and the ICC with respect and dignity. The announcement was made by the governing body in an online ceremony.
Abbas walked off the park unbeaten on 159 at the end of day 1 and there was hardly any doubt that the batsman would go on to become a great.When he reached 261, Abbas became the first batsman to complete 1,000 runs in that English season. Zed’s personality is altogether sweeter.”Abbas finished his career with 5,062 runs from 124 test innings at an average of 44.84 and is widely regarded as one of the greatest Pakistan batsmen to have ever taken the field.Abbas' only regret from his test career remains that if only there were more frequent matches played in his time, he says casually, 10,000-20,000 test runs would not have been a big deal.Zaheer Abbas, President of International Cricket Council (ICC) presents West Indies captain Darren Sammy (3rd L)with the World T20 trophy
“As a psychological study (Zaheer is) complex in the same way that Wally Hammond was. He richly deserves this recognition from the ICC, which hopefully will further inspire next generation of Pakistan cricketers." "It is a matter of great honour and pride for Pakistan that Zaheer Abbas’s outstanding career achievements have been acknowledged by the game’s governing body. Hammond could be surly and cruelly dismissive. Dennis Amiss scored 183 for England while Keith Fletcher compiled 122 to allow Pakistan a lead of only 55 in the first innings.With Pakistan 94/4 at the end of the fifth day, the match ended in a draw to mark an end to the three-match series, with the scoreline showing not a pretty 0-0.Abbas finished the series as the highest run-scorer with 324 runs from 6 innings at 54. This is why critics were circumspect when a bespectacled Abbas toured England for his second-ever and first test match on the English soil in 1971.In his first test, off just the 3rd ball, Allan Ward struck Aftab Gul on the head, who had to retire to get the wound stitched.
Between 1973 and 1982, he would go on to score at least 1,000 runs every season.The batsman was finally dismissed for 274 which remains his career-best performance.
"Pakistan Cricket Board has congratulated Zaheer Abbas on his ... "It is appropriate that Zaheer is inducted into the elite group exactly 46 years after his magnificent 240 … There, I would suggest, the comparison ends. Both engendered enormous respect and both opted for a privacy that did not come easily in a cricket dressing room.
Thus, it gives me immense pleasure to congratulate Zed on behalf of millions of Pakistan cricket fans across the world for this recognition,” he said.“It is appropriate that Zaheer be inducted into the elite group exactly 46 years after his magnificent 240 against England at The Oval in his 15th Test, which was his second double-century following the famous 274 at Edgbaston in 1971 in only his second Test. Both saved their eloquence for the crease; both were withdrawn and defensive. For all its elegance, Zaheer Abbas' high back-lift also brought a risk of him failing in conditions where the ball jagged around.
This double century, scored at the Oval, was the second double century of Zaheer Abbas’s career and he scored 215 runs in the innings. Ehsan Mani said that coincidentally, Zaheer Abbas is being honored with this award exactly 46 years after his brilliant innings of 240 runs against England in his 15th Test.
