Cricket’s original Little Master passes away
Pakistan’s legendary former captain and batsman Hanif Mohammad, who held the record for the longest innings in Test cricket, passed away on Thursday after a prolonged battle with lung cancer.
Lahore: Pakistan’s legendary former captain and batsman Hanif Mohammad, who held the record for the longest innings in Test cricket, passed away on Thursday after a prolonged battle with lung cancer.
The Junagadh-born Hanif passed away at the age of 81. Hanif, known as the 'Little Master' for his batting skills, was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2013 and went to London for surgery and treatment and returned home well.
Hanif, had earlier in the day, been declared clinically dead for around six minutes before he was revived to life. He is revered as one of Pakistan's greatest batsman after playing the longest innings in Test history - a mammoth 970-minute (16 hours and 10 minutes) 337 against the West Indies at Bridgetown in 1958.
A year later he followed it up with a record first-class score of 499, for Karachi against Bhawalpur in Karachi, during which he broke Sir Don Bradman's record of 452 runs.
Brian Lara broke it 34 years later with an unbeaten 501 for Warwickshire against Durham in 1994.
