Javed Miandad was extremely lucky to survive plumb LBW appeal off Derek Pringle bowling. At that stage, Pakistan was crawling for runs. If that would have been given, might be Pakistan could not winner of 1992 Final. Like many great Asian batsmen, Javed Miandad was immense on his own pitches. However, for his case, he was also very versatile and skillful enough to make Test hundreds when the ball was behaving very differently in Australia, England, and the Caribbean. Javed Miandad was spotted at an early age by Mushtaq Mohammad as a great player in the making. He seemed to be born with a good technique.

Javed Miandad scored a century in his first Test match against New Zealand in 1976 and then a brilliant double century in his third. He was still in his early twenties when he scored centuries against Richard Hadlee in Christchurch and Rodney Hogg at the bouncy track of WACA Perth. So, more than 2,000 runs in a championship season for Glamorgan.

Javed Miandad was the superstar batsman at the World Cup that Pakistan won in Australia and New Zealand in 1992. He was making runs in every match but one, including half-centuries in the semi-final and final, when his partnership of 139 with Imran Khan laid the platform for victory over England. Eventually, Wasim Akram two wickets on successive balls change the whole game, and Pakistan lift the trophy first time. Imran Khan had asked his players to fight like cornered tigers at that tournament, and no one fought harder than Javed.

If the art of batting is allied to the ability to watch the ball closely, then Javed was an absolute master. He plays the balls right in front of his face when the instinct of most people would be to duck their heads behind their hands. There was none of that with him. He watched the ball right on to the bat and knocked it down, a model of control. He was brave and courageous. There was no fear in his batting.
