One of the most successful captain and bat♒sman produced by 🔜India, Mohammad Azharuddin’s career was tainted due to match-fixing scandals which broke out in 2000.

As a result, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) handཧed a life-ban to the💫 Hyderabad cricketer who is amongst the highest scorers for the country in international cricket.

Overall, Azhar accumulated 16,000 runs in both ODIs and Test cricket. Also, the ex-middle-order batsman holds one of the most impressive win percentage records for the coꦆuntry. After appealing to Andhra Pradesh High Court, his ban got lifted follo✃wing a judicial fight of 12 years.

He was later electe🌱d as the president of the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) and felt his redemption after attending the BCCI AGM meeting.

“I don’t꧟ want to blame anyone for what happened. I really don’t know the reasons for banning me. But I had decided to fight it and I am grateful that after 12 years I got cleared. I felt very satisfied when after being elected president of Hyderabad association I went and attended the BCCI AGM meeting,” Azhar told cricketpakistan.com.

In the hinds�ဣ�ight, Azhar did not hold any disappointment for ending up playing one short of the 100th Test match milestone.

“I am a firm believer in fate and whatever is ♛in your destiny it happens. I look at this way that nowadays if a player is a class act he ends up playing more than 100 Tests. So I don’t think this record of 99 Test matches that I hold is going to be broken,” the 57-year old added.

In the end, Azhar counted his blessings for being able to lead to India for a substantial period of time. “I played for around 16 to 17 years and I captained for around 10 years. Wha🥀t more can I ask for?” Azhar concluded.
