Pakistan team’s world cup winning wicket-keeper and former captain, Moin Khan provided vital support and input towards Pakistan’s growing success in world cricket. He had to compete for his place in the team with Rashid Latif, but he was mostly preferred in shorter formats for his explosive and innovative hitting and gazelle like running speed. He could keep with ease to Wasim Akram, Shoaib Akhtar and Saqlain Mushtaq, Mushtaq Ahmed.
