Pakistan’s all-time Test XI

5. Inzamam-ul-Haq:

Pakistan’s third highest run-scorer, 3 runs behind Miandad’s tally of 8832 runs, makes the cut over Mohammad Yousuf. It was a hard one to choose between these two legends tailor made for this spot, but Inzamam-ul-Haq triumphs because his numbers are a better than those of his counterpart.

He holds the second highest individual score by a Pakistani of 329 and averages a shade over 50, one of the only four batsmen to do that for Pakistan. His 25 centuries are the second most, and 46 fifties the most by a Pakistani. His numbers certainly prove how dominant and effective he was, and he complements the line-up beautifully with his uncanny style of play.
