Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

I opened this thread to track if Inzi will be able to surpass Javed Miandad test score.

Javed Miandad Test score 8832 in 124 matches and 189 innings.

Inzimam-ul-Haq Test score 8650 in 117 matches and 193 innings.

This includes the score of current test day 1 against SA.

Inzi is on 35 not out as the 1st day is over. He needs another 182. InshAllah he should be able to do this by the end of this 3 test series against SA.

^inshallah ... i also hope that he becomes the first paki to score 9000 runs .

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Yes he will pass Javed record. When he eventually does break his record can we expect shower of gifts for him.........?

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

I personally would like him to quit captaincy after the WC but continue playing as a test batsman until 2008-9. He could even become the first PAK batman to score 10,000 test runs.

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

why? :konfused:

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

For breaking Javed record - it will be some achievement.

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

^ I don't think breaking country's own record should shower you with gifts, yeah if you break world record or create then there might be a token gift. Were there any such in pasts?

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Another record up for grabs
If Inzi scores a hundred against SA (ideally tomorrow) he would join a select band of seven batsmen who have all scored a hundred against each of the other 9 test playing nations.

  • Ponting
  • Lara
  • SRT
  • Kirsten
  • Atapattu
  • Dravid &
  • Steve Waugh

You never know - if he breaks the record plus goodbye gifts may be on offer........

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Hopefully he'll make a big dent into the 182 in this innings.

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Update...

Current score after the 1st test 8692

He need another 140

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Total now 8784.

Needs another 48

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

InshAllah it should be in the second innings or maybe 3rd test if the top order bats well...

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Well Inzi got out on 1 (thanks to the umpire) so he still need another 47. InshAllah in the 3rd test.

Re: Inzimam-ul-Haq chances surpassing Javed Miandad

Miandad 124 Tests 8832 Runs Ave: 52.57, 100s: 23, 50s: 43

Inzamam 118 Tests 8785 Runs Ave: 50.48, 100s: 25, 50s: 46

Inzi needs 48 more to go past the legendary Miandad, a hundred in the next game would do nicely and also complete a set of hundreds against every test nation
