Thanks. Personally I think Inzimam was better than Miandad. Miandad certainly played in a more difficult era--but if you look at his record against the WI and Australia--it is very ordinary.

Miandad was a grafter and extremely strong mentally--but Inzi had pure class and a delicate touch which was delightful. In his youth he reminded me, more than any other player since, of Viv Richards in his pomp.

You have dealt well with our Inzi -truly deserved praise for an icon of our cricketing lore.
One last ball: why did he 'leave' without clearing Javed Miandad's record and planting his 'chchekka' on top??!!
