Profile

An unspectacular career for Asif Mujtaba but when he made his Pakistan debut at 19 he seemed destined for great things. He hit an unbeaten 60 in his fourth one-dayer to pull off an unlikely one-wicket win over Australia at Perth in 1986-87, but despite a first-class average of over 50 Mujtaba never quite cracked it at the top level - he averaged only 24 in 25 Tests and 26 from 66 one-dayers. His zenith came against Australia at Hobart in 1992-93, when he took 16 off Steve Waugh's last over - including a big six over midwicket off the final ball - to grab an unlikely tie.
