Born in Lahore, Azhar Ali is a right-handed batsman renowned for his disciplined technique and composure at the crease. Since making his Test debut against Australia in 2010, he has become a permanent fixture in Pakistan’s top-order batting lineup.
A career highlight arrived in 2016 during the inaugural day-night Test match against the West Indies. Azhar delivered a historic performance, anchoring the innings with a marathon unbeaten knock of 302 runs.
Beyond his contributions with the bat, Azhar has demonstrated strong leadership qualities, serving as stand-in captain for Pakistan during their 2016 tour of New Zealand. He remains a central figure for the national side, including during their 2016-17 tour Down Under.
