Misbah-ul-Haq Khan Niazi (Urdu: مصباح الحق خان نیازی ) is a Pakistani cricketer. He is the current Test captain of the Pakistan national cricket team, and was also the One Day International (ODI) captain until his retirement from ODI cricket after the 2015 Cricket World Cup. He is a middle-order batsmen best known for his composure with the bat whilst also having the ability to be an aggressive big shot player when required. He is the top scorer in ODI cricket among those players who haven't scored a century in ODI. Misbah has an MBA degree in HRM from the University of Management and Technology in Lahore, Punjab. He belongs to the popular tribe of Punjab known as Niazi tribe.
Career
Related to the former Pakistan captain turned politician Imran Khan, Misbah ul Haq was initially noticed for his technique and his temperament in the Tri-nation tournament in Nairobi, Kenya in 2002, as he scored two fifties in the three innings in which he played, however, over the next three Tests he played against Australia, he failed to score more than twenty runs and was soon dumped from the team. Having witnessed Pakistan being eliminated in the opening phase of the 2003 Cricket World Cup, Misbah was part of the changes made to the team in the aftermath of these results, but failed to make much of an impact and was soon dropped again.
Comeback
At the age of 33, Misbah was chosen to play in the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 in 2007, filling the middle order spot vacated by Inzamam-ul-Haq. He had been regularly making runs in Pakistani domestic cricket and in the years before his recall he was consistently one of the top run scorers at each season's end, with his first-class average briefly climbing above 50.
Misbah was one of the stars of the tournament, playing a large part in many run chases. The first was in the group stage against India where he scored a half century in a tied match. He was run out attempting the winning run off the last ball of the match. In their Super 8s encounter with Australia he was named Man of the Match with an unbeaten 66 off 42 deliveries to see his side home with 5 balls to spare. Another unbeaten innings in the semi final against New Zealand saw Pakistan book a spot in the final against India.
He played an instrumental role in Pakistan's recovery in the inaugural 2007 ICC World Twenty20 final against arch-rivals India, with Four sixes. He hit the second legitimate ball of the last over for six. With 6 runs needed to win off 4 remaining balls, Misbah tried to scoop the ball over short fine leg, but was caught out by Sreesanth.
Misbah scored his first Test hundred against India at Kolkata in the 2nd Test of the 2007 series. After India managed 616 in their first innings, Pakistan were at 5 for 150 in reply and in danger of following on when Misbah and Kamran Akmal put together a match saving 207 run stand. Misbah finished on 161 not out. In the 3rd & final Test of the series, Misbah made another fluent century this time finishing on 133 not out.
2008 began with some high points for Misbah as he was elevated to the post of Vice – Captain of the Pakistan team and was awarded a Grade A Contract. Since returning to International Cricket for Pakistan, Misbah has gone through a sustained patch of prolific run scoring. In his last 5 Test Match innings for Pakistan, he has notched up 458 runs at a very high batting average of 152.67 against India. In his last 5 ODIs as well, Misbah has made 190 Runs at an average of 63.33 & in Domestic Cricket for Punjab, he has amassed an astounding 586 runs at an average of 195.33 with 2 centuries and his highest first-class score of 208*. He holds the record for having scored the most ODI fifties without ever having scored a century, which is 26, having surpassed New Zealand's Andrew Jones' 25. Misbah has completed his MBA.
Misbah was dropped from the team after the 2010 ICC World Twenty20 owing to a dismal performance with the bat, and missed the team's controversial tour of England in August 2010.
Captaincy
Due to the batting-collapses that Pakistan suffered during England tour 2010 and spot-fixing controversy, Misbah was recalled for the subsequent tour against South Africa in the UAE to lead as a captain of the team for test series. After resignation of Shahid Afridi as test captain and suspended captain Salman Butt due to spot-fixing scandal, Misbah was preferred over Younus Khan, Mohammad Yousuf and Kamran Akmal as captain. Wasim Akram stated that although the decision was surprising if Misbah bats and fields well everything else will go according to plan. Former Pakistan coach Geoff Lawson stated that he believed Misbah has the best cricketing brain within Pakistan and he will do incredibly well in the plans for the captaincy Misbah hit back at those who criticised the decision to appoint him captain and stated that he should be given a chance to prove himself In his first match as test captain he set an example for his team when he scored 71* in a 168 run partnership with Younus Khan this helped Pakistan salvage a draw from the match. Misbah has led Pakistan in 33 test matches, winning 15, losing 9 with 8 draws. In 2012 Misbah led Pakistan to a clean sweep against the world number one ranked team England and also become only 2nd Pakistani captain to win the Asia Cup after Moin Khan. He has won 6 out of 10 series during his captaincy, winning series against New Zealand, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, England and South Africa (a feat no Pakistani captain had been able to manage before Misbah), drawing against South Africa and the West Indies, and losing to South Africa and Sri Lanka.
Career Highlights
2012
—Pakistan coach Waqar Younis in 2011 on Misbah's captaincy.I have to give full credit to Misbah as he has stabilised the team and leads from the front. His performance is also outstanding. He makes the boys feel comfortable and relaxed so they actually enjoy their cricket. He is mature and willing to listen. The only unfortunate thing is the age factor which is not in Misbah's favour.
In January 2012, Pakistan hosted England in United Arab Emirates (UAE). The tour included three Tests, four ODIs and three T20Is.The matches were meant to be held in Pakistan, but ongoing security problems in the country meant that the series was moved to the UAE.
Pakistan won the Test series after whitewashing England by a 3–0 margin. This was Misbah's biggest achievement as captain. Pakistan won the first test by 10 wickets, 2nd by 72 runs and 3rd test by 71 runs. England however took some revenge by winning the ODI series 4–0 and T20I series 2–1.
After the defeat in Twenty20 series against England in 2012 and criticism from former cricketers, Misbah stepped down as Pakistan's Twenty20 captain and Mohammad Hafeez was named his successor to lead the team in Twenty20.

Following the poor performance against England in ODI series in 2012, Pakistan won the Asia Cup under Misbah-ul-Haq's captaincy. Pakistan defeated Bangladesh in final to win Asia Cup. He became only 2nd Pakistani captain to win the Asia Cup after Moin Khan.
In Dec 2012, Pakistan toured India, where they went with a young and new team. Pakistan won 2–1 in the 3 match ODI series under Misbah-ul-Haq.
2013
Pakistan's Champions Trophy performance lost all group stage matches. But Misbah continued to support his team while other batsmen failed to score. Misbah ended up being leading run scorer from Pakistan and 6th overall in competition scoring 173 runs in 3 matches at mammoth average of 86.50. Misbah also missed an opportunity to score his maiden century in ODIs when his team was all-out when he was at career-best 96 not-out vs West Indies in group stage match.
Misbah's form with the bat continued in West Indies tour where he always had to rescue his team from a collapse. He scored four half-centuries out of five matches. He finished the tour with 260 runs at an average of 65.00. He received two Man-of-Match awards in the tour. He was also adjudged Man-of-Series after an impressive performance with bat. Pakistan won that series 3–1.
Misbah-ul-Haq moved to a career-best seventh place in the ICC rankings for ODI batsmen. At that time Misbah was the leading run-getter in 2013 scoring 808 runs with nine half-centuries ahead of Kumar Sangakkara of Sri Lanka.
Misbah had not only gained success at international level but also at domestic level. His 2012–13 domestic season was memorable. He captained Faisalabad Wolves in Twenty20 domestic tournament and SNGPL in First-class and List-A domestic tournament. First, he took SNGPL to victory in President's Trophy against Younus Khan's HBL and then Faisalabad Wolves to victory in Faysal Bank Super 8 against Shoaib Malik's Sialkot Stallions in final surprisingly. Though Faisalabad Wolves lost final earlier in Faysal Bank T20 Cup against Mohammad Hafeez's Lahore Lions but they took their revenge in Super 8 tournament in semi-final and eventually winning the tournament and more importantly qualifying for the Champions League T20. And at last Misbah led SNGPL to another victory in domestic list-A tournament, President's Cup against Rana Naved-ul-Hasan's WAPDA in final. Misbah won all domestic tournaments (Twenty20, first-class and list-A) in domestic season 2012/13.
In the first test at Abu Dhabi against South Africa, Pakistan amassed 442 versus the world no.1 team, Misbah scored his 4th test century, which was the second in the innings after Khurram Manzoor's 146. In the second innings the Pakistani batting collapsed and were 7/3 with only needing a mere target of 40. When the two seniors of the team (Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan) came in to bat, Misbah hit two sixes off the bowling of Robin Peterson and hit the winning runs with a straight six.
In the second test at Dubai, Pakistan were all out for 99 in the first innings. After South Africa amassed a total of 517 with Graeme Smith hitting his 4th Test double and yet another century from the AB de Villiers, Pakistan were faltering for an embarrassing defeat. At 70/4 Misbah came in and blitzed the South African bowling attack with a 197 run stand with the Asad Shafiq repeating the same stand the two had in the first test, Misbah scored 88 before trying to obliterate the part-time spinner Dean Elgar over cow corner but edged it straight to Jacques Kallis.
ODI Series vs South Africa 2013 (UAE)

Pakistan played a series of 5 ODIs against South Africa in the UAE, 2013. The first was played at Sharjah, where Pakistan were set a target of 184, having bowled out the South Africans for 183 in 49.5 overs. Misbah came in to bat at 75/2, and scored 31 before being caught by Faf du Plessis off Wayne Parnell's bowling. Pakistan collapsed after Misbah's wicket and were all out for 182 in 46.3 overs, to lose the opening game by 1 run.
In Dubai, Pakistan won the 2nd ODI by 66 runs, leveling the series 1–1.
South Africa managed to score 259/8 at the end of 50 overs in the 3rd ODI at Abu Dhabi. Pakistan's brittle batting could not cope with the pressure and were bundled out for a mere 191, losing by 68 runs. The 4th ODI was played at the same ground, where South Africa (266/5) managed to restrict Pakistan to 238, winning by 28 runs, and also taking the series. This was the first time in a 5-match bilateral ODI series between South Africa and Pakistan that a pattern of winning alternate games was not followed. It also marked another series defeat for Pakistan by the South Africans, having lost to them in all the series played up till now.
The dead rubber was held at Sharjah. Being set a target of 269, after South Africa scored 268/7 in 50 overs, the batting line-up of Pakistan were all out for 151, losing by 117 and handing South Africa the series 4–1.
This series defeat brought Misbah's captaincy under severe scrutiny. Ex-Pakistani players were demanding a total renovation of Pakistan cricket, and Misbah was being criticized for his captaincy, slow batting and the defeat. The PCB, however, announced that Misbah was to remain captain until the 2015 WC. Several TV shows and notable personalities opposed this decision and demanded that Misbah be sacked.

This section does not cite any sources. Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (January 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this message) |
India was scheduled to play South Africa in a 3 Test, 7 ODI and 3 T20I series, which was cut short by the BCCI. To minimize losses, CSA invited Pakistan to play South Africa at home, in their 3rd bilateral series of the year.
The first ODI was hosted at Cape Town. South Africa were bundled out for 195, losing by 23 runs, and Pakistan taking the lead, 1–0.
The 2nd ODI at Port Elizabeth was rain-affected, bringing it down to 45 overs per side. Pakistan won the game by 1 run, which also lead them to a maiden series win against South Africa, that too at home. Pakistan was also the first Sub-Continent team to beat South Africa in a bilateral ODI series at home.
The dead rubber was played at Centurion, and 3 of Pakistan's star bowlers, Mohammad Hafeez, Shahid Afridi and Junaid Khan were rested. Batting first once again, Pakistan scraped together a total of 179 all out, with Misbah remaining unbeaten on 79. Although the bowlers tried to keep Pakistan in the game, the South African batsmen were too good and won by 4 wickets. Pakistan took the series 2–1. This away win over the Proteas after being humiliated in Pakistan's adopted home, the UAE, brought things back to normal in Pakistan cricket, with Misbah receiving praise from across the country.
