[1] A leg-spin and googly bowler, Mohammad Amin played for Northern India in the Ranji Trophy before Pakistan gained independence.
In December 1947 he played in the first first-class match in Pakistan, representing Punjab against Sind.
Amin played in Pakistan's first match, which was against the touring West Indians in 1948–49, taking three wickets.
When the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy began in 1953–54, Amin played for Pakistan Railways.
He took 13 wickets at an average of 18.15 in the two matches, including 5 for 57 and 4 for 89 when Railways lost to Punjab in the semi-final,[6] but younger spinners were preferred for the Test tour of England in 1954.
