#1 Imran Khan
There was supposedly a fierce rivalry between Imran Khan and Javed Miandad during their time with Pakistan, but I don’t think even Miandad can dispute that Imran is the greatest cricketer Pakistan has ever produced.
Imran is also one of the greatest all-rounders in the history of the game and had a major role in transforming a mediocre side into one that ran the invincible West Indies side of the 1980s close on a couple of occasions in Test cricket apart from having the distinction of leading Pakistan to their only 50-over World Cup victory in 1992.
He took 362 wickets in just 88 Tests at an average of 22.81 and also scored 3807 runs at an average close to 40 in a career that spanned 2 decades. Apart from his own contributions on the field, he also deserves immense credit for molding the likes of Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis, both of whom he picked out of gut instinct, into the champion bowlers that they became.
