Profile

Khan Mohammad was a member of Pakistan's first Test team that played against India in 1952. Born in Lahore, Punjab, he was educated at the city's Islamia College. He played in 13 Tests as an opening bowler who shared the new ball with Fazal Mahmood. He also holds the distinction of bowling Pakistan's first ball and taking Pakistan's first wicket in Test cricket.
He even once bowled Len Hutton in a Test match for a duck, at Lord's in 1954 - a rare feat among the cricketers of that time.
