Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
was dominated by the brilliance of Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. Armed with a nice
run-up and a high arm action, Aaqib put in some memorable performances, mostly against
Pakistan’s arch-rivals, India.
Aaqib made his ODI debut in 1988 during the Benson and Hedges tri-series in Australia
featuring the West Indies. Aaqib made a solid start as he picked up 10 wickets in eight
matches. His most memorable moment, though, came against India during the 1991 Wills
Trophy final. Aaqib became the youngest player to take a hat-trick in ODIs when he snapped
up Ravi Shastri, Mohammad Azharuddin and Sachin Tendulkar in three balls. He finished up
with the then, best haul of 7/37 as Pakistan demolished India by 72 runs.
During the 1992 World Cup, in the absence of Waqar Younis, Aaqib opened the bowling and
bowled his heart out. In 10 matches, he picked up 11 wickets at an economy rate of 3.86. He
continued to put in some good performances, especially against India. In 39 ODIs against
them, he picked up 54 wickets, including three five wicket hauls.
He had a limited impact in Tests. During the 1992 tour to England, he was involved in a
sweater-tugging incident with umpire Roy Palmer during the Test at Old Trafford which
earned him a reprimand. However, with the passage of time, Aaqib’s potency waned and he
announced his retirement in 1998.
Following his retirement, Aaqib coached the Pakistan U-19 team to victory in 2004. He
also helped in the development of the Afghanistan cricket team and he also was the bowling
coach of the Pakistan national team. In 2012, he resigned and became the bowling coach of
the UAE cricket team. He is currently the chief coach of the National Cricket Academy in
Pakistan.
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
An underrated fast-medium bowler who mastered traditional and reverse swing, Aaqib had a sprinting run-up that culminated in a high action, and a hostile attitude towards batters. He was allegedly only 16 when he made his Test debut in 1988-89, but he spent much of his career in the shadows of Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis, despite playing a key part in Pakistan's 1992 World Cup victory when he opened the bowling effectively in place of the injured Waqar.
The subsequent tour of England was eventful too. Aaqib was involved in a notorious sweater-tugging incident with umpire Roy Palmer after he had gratuitously pitched short at England's No. 11, Devon Malcolm.
He was in and out of the side too much for his liking, and made more of an impact as a one-day player. Aaqib's career ended amid the acrimony of Pakistan's match-fixing crisis in the late 1990s, though he himself was seen as one of the clean players. He went into coaching after retiring, and under his stewardship, UAE gained ODI and T20I status and qualified for the 2015 World Cup.
