There have been many players in the world of cricket, whose luck has always been with them and they have achieved a lot on the basis of their luck. But through today's article, we are going to tell you about a Pakistani player who can be called the most unlucky player in the world. Since he was out not on 99, 199 or 299 but on a personal score of 499.

This Pakistani player is the most unlucky player!

Actually, the player we are talking about is none other than Hanif Mohammad, the former veteran batsman of Pakistan cricket team, who played in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy in Bahawalpur in the year 1959. Scored 499 runs after batting for 635 minutes.

In that match, Hanif Mohammad could have easily scored more than 500 runs while playing for Karachi. But his dream could not be fulfilled due to being run out and he was out on the score of 499.

Hanif Mohammad was out on 499 runs

Let us tell you that if Hanif Mohammad had taken one more run in that match, he would have easily completed 500 runs. By doing this, he would have become the first player in cricket history to score 500 runs in an innings in first class cricket. However, he is still the second player in world cricket who has played such a big innings in first class cricket.

The record of playing all the big innings is recorded in the name of this player.

The record for playing the biggest innings in first class cricket is held in the name of former West Indies cricket team legend Brian Lara, who scored an unbeaten 501 runs against Durham while playing for Warwickshire in 1994. Lara did this feat in Birmingham. It is known that Lara is the only opponent in world cricket who has touched the figure of 500 runs in first class cricket.
