Imam ul Haq

Imam ul Haq was born on 12th December 1995. Growing up in Multan with the constant backdrop of cricket, it was little surprise when he picked up a bat as a toddler, imitating the stars on television. As the nephew of Pakistani cricket legend Inzamam ul Haq, cricket ran in his blood, but it was his innate talent and tenacity that saw him carve his own space in the game.

Imam's journey from the dusty grounds of his hometown to international stadiums was as swift as it was inevitable. His early days were defined by school competitions, where his natural prowess caught the attention of selectors. By the time he represented Pakistan at the Under-19 level, Imam had already established himself as a formidable left-handed batsman, known for an impeccable understanding of the game and a penchant for building innings with patience and flair.

His professional debut in October 2017 for the national team was nothing short of spectacular; a maiden ODI century against Sri Lanka spoke volumes, placing him amongst a select few who scored a ton on debut. This stunning entrance set the tone for a career that would see him emerge as a vital cog in Pakistan’s batting order. Known for his classical technique combined with an array of shots, Imam often played the anchor role, ensuring stability at one end while others around him unleashed their aggression.

While not predominantly known for his bowling, Imam's versatility in the bowling department lent balance to the team, especially in situations where part-time bowling options were vital. His on-field acumen was not limited to statistics but was often highlighted in nail-biting finishes, where his steady hand helped steer his team to victory.

Historic rivalries, particularly against India, defined some of his noteworthy performances. In these high-stakes games, Imam showcased his mettle and nerve, capping off innings with his signature drives and flicks that would pierce through field settings systematically. His contributions in the 2019 ICC World Cup were pivotal; his performances dynamic, offering both stability and aggression when needed.
