RIP Hanif Mohammed.?
The death has just been announced of Hanif Mohammed. I trust all cricket fans will pause to remember him for a moment. A great servant to Pakistani cricket, he was a veteran of her inaugural Test match, and is best remembered for the finest defensive ever played. In Barbados in 1958, Pakistan were forced to follow on 473 runs behind, but Hanif saved the game with an innings of 337, lasting more than sixteen hours.
In first-class cricket, his highest score was 499 (at which point he ran himself out).
Hanif Mohammed: 81 declared.

His wish was to see a Cricket Academy in Pakistan producing future legends. His wish wasn't fulfilled in his lifetime but let's see if it's gonna happen in the future.
RIP "real" little master.
