Inzamam-ul-Haq (born 3 March 1970) is a Pakistani cricketer. He is considered to be one of Pakistan's best batsmen. His career highlights are:
Becoming the second batsman to score 10,000 runs in one-day inernationals (behind Sachin Tendulkar), scoring 329 against New Zealand in Lahore during a test in the 2001-02 season (the tenth highest score by a batsman) and scoring 138* to deny Bangladesh victory at Multan.
Inzamam ul-Haq is well-known for his poor running between the wickets (he has been run out 31 times in one-day internationals as of 1999) and his ability to play shots around the ground. He has been described as looking "like a passenger in the field". He averages 49.63 runs per innings in tests and almost 39 runs in one-day internationals with a strike rate of 53.18 and 73.1 respectively (figures current as of 19 September 2004)
