Former Pakistan Test Skipper Saeed Ahmed Passes Away At Age Of 86

He also took 22 wickets with his right-arm off-spin bowling.

He made his Test debut against West Indies in 1958 and played his last Test for Pakistan in Melbourne during the 1972-73 tour.

He was Pakistan’s sixth Test captain and had replaced Hanif Mohammad as skipper of the side during England’s tour of the nation in 1969.

However, his tenure as captain lasted for only three Tests.

PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi expressed condolences and said, “The PCB is saddened over the demise of former Test captain and expresses deep condolences to the family of Saeed Ahmed. He served Pakistan with all his heart and the PCB honours his record and services for the Test team.”
