Father: Tauqir-ul-Haq, Wife: Anmol Mehmood, Daughter: Inara Haq
Imam-ul-Haq is a left-handed opening batter from Pakistan who has consistently silenced critics who once dismissed him as a product of nepotism due to his famous uncle, former Pakistan captain and chief selector Inzamam-ul-Haq. The 30-year-old from Lahore announced his arrival in emphatic fashion, scoring a century on ODI debut against Sri Lanka in 2017, and followed up with three centuries in ten days in Zimbabwe the following year. His Test debut against Ireland in 2018 saw him rescue Pakistan with a fourth-innings 74 not out, and he has since established himself as a reliable top-order presence across formats. Imam’s 151 against England leading into the 2019 World Cup highlighted his ability on the big stage, while his two centuries against Australia and England in 2022 reaffirmed his value in Test cricket. Known for his emphatic drives and prolific scoring off his hips, Imam has carved out his own identity in Pakistan cricket, developing into a second-innings specialist in Tests with an average of 48 in the second dig compared to 29 in the first.
