Parvez Miah

Parvez Miah, born on 12th June 1994, embarked on his cricketing journey with dreams of making it big in the international arena. Hailing from the bustling streets of Manchester, Parvez's early years were marked by long hours of dedication on local grounds, where he would hone his skills under the watchful eyes of his father—a former club cricketer himself. His natural flair for delivering the ball with searing pace coupled with a knack for extracting bounce, saw him quickly ascend through the ranks.

Parvez made his professional debut for Lancashire in 2015, and it wasn't long before he became a household name among cricket enthusiasts. His right-arm fast-medium bowling proved to be a formidable weapon, capturing the attention of national selectors. A pivotal moment in his career came during the 2017 County Championship, when he achieved remarkable figures of 7 for 45 against rivals Yorkshire. This performance not only showcased his ability to swing the ball both ways but also cemented his reputation as a clutch player in pressure situations.

Among his notable achievements, Miah played a crucial role in Lancashire's triumphant 2017 County Championship campaign. His ability to consistently break crucial partnerships made him indispensable to the team. He also set a record in 2018 for the most maiden overs in a county season, underlining his economical approach and relentless accuracy.

Rivalries were a significant aspect of Parvez's career, with his face-offs against Sussex’s top batsman David Parker becoming headline material. Their on-field contests were often the talk of the circuit, with Parvez successfully claiming Parker's wicket on numerous occasions, adding layers to their competitive saga.

Parvez's playing style is synonymous with relentless aggression and tactical acumen. His speed, typically hovering in the mid-80s mph range, is complemented by his deceptively clever slower balls, which often bamboozle even seasoned batsmen. As a batsman, Miah's contributions are pragmatic, accustomed to frustrating bowlers with his stubborn resistance lower down the order.

One of the defining moments in his career came during a League T20 match in 2019, when Miah’s last-over heroics with both bat and ball led his team to a thrilling victory, encapsulating his belief in fighting till the very end.

With every delivery he bowled, Parvez Miah didn’t just aim to take wickets—he aimed to leave a mark. And leave a mark he did, on and off the field, as an exemplary figure in the modern game.
