Mazhar Hussain

Sheikh Mazhar Hussain (born 25 October 1967) is a former cricketer who played for various Lahore teams from 1984–85 to 1988–89 before emigrating to the United Arab Emirates.

Hussain notched up a total of 24 first-class games while playing in his native Pakistan, making a top score of 139.

However, he was never selected for the full Pakistan side and blamed his non-selection on "petty politics and favouritism".

In the 1994 Pepsi Austral-Asia Cup, held in Sharjah, he played his first two One Day International, scoring 70 in the first ODI, against India.

Hussain's 179 runs in ODI cricket make him the highest-scoring Emirati in One Day Internationals.
