Inzamam ul Haq as captain

 


Inzamam ul Haq was very successful as captain of the Pakistani cricket team. Inzamam Ul Haq like Imran Khan used to lead from the front as he used to score heavily in most of Pakistan's victories as captain. Inzamam ul Haq led Pakistan to a very successful tour of India in 2005.

In that tour of India in 2005 Pakistan won the ODI series by a convincing margin of 4-2 and drew the test series 1-1. In the ODI series after losing the first two ODI s by big margins Pakistan bounced back by winning the ODI series 4-2 and winning four consecutive matches in a row. Inzamam ul Haq played a captain's knock of fifty plus in the ODI at Ahmedabad which was the fourth ODI in the series and won that match for Pakistan by hitting Tendulkar on the last ball of the match for winning runs.

In the end what I would like to say is that Inzamam Ul Haq deserved a better farewell to captaincy when Pakistan lost that disastrous world cup for Pakistan in 2007 resulting in their coach Bob Woolmer's death.
