Pakistan's greatest Test wicketkeepers: Who was the best? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
JournalismPakistan.com | Published: 30 September 2026 | Dr. Nauman Niaz Every tradition begins with an irregularity, some small fracture in the logic of things that later generations dress up as destiny. Pakistan, a country that seems to have been born improvising and has never entirely lost the habit, began its wicketkeeping tradition with an absurdity so complete that it passes, in the telling, for lyricism. When Abdul Hafeez Kardar led his men onto the Feroz Shah Kotla in October 1952, in the

JournalismPakistan.com | Published: 27 September 2026 | Dr. Nauman Niaz There is a particular kind of afternoon that belongs to Pakistan and to nowhere else. It arrives in the dry months over a maidan in Lahore or a parched strip in Sahiwal. The sun has pressed the colour out of everything, and the ball has been hurled for the three-hundredth time against scrub and grit and the concrete lip of a boundary until it is closer to a stone than a cricket ball.

JournalismPakistan.com | Published: 13 September 2026 | Dr. Nauman Niaz There is a particular shade of English September light, low, buttery, faintly apologetic, that falls across Edgbaston in the third week of the month, and it fell that way on the Saturday Pakistan's Test cricket finally ran out of road. Joe Root, 62 not out, walked off with the unhurried gait of a man who had just completed a chore, Jordan Cox beside him grinning the grin of the young and undeserving-of-the-burden-of-history,
Pakistan must protect Qayyum beyond the 153 kph hype (opens the original)

JournalismPakistan.com | Published: 27 August 2026 | Dr. Nauman Niaz There are numbers that describe a thing, and there are numbers that devour it. In Pakistan cricket, 153 kilometres per hour is already becoming the second kind. It has escaped the speed gun, slipped its decimal shackles and entered folklore before the young man who produced it has properly entered first-class cricket. It travels faster than the ball itself. It flashes across television tickers, prowls through social media, fatt
