Syed Saleem Altaf Bokhari (born 19 April 1944) is a former Pakistani cricketer who played in 21 Test matches and six One Day Internationals from 1967 to 1978.
His most successful series was in Australia in 1972-73, when he took 11 wickets at 28.45 in the three Tests, bowling at a brisk pace and "swinging the ball late and seaming it disconcertingly".
In first-class cricket, his best figures were 7 for 69 (11 for 155 in the match) for Punjab University against Lahore Greens in 1965-66.
He was dismissed on 12 June 2008, after he allegedly leaked to the media an email sent by PCB Chairman Naseem Ashraf to Talat Ali (Pakistan team manager) in which Ashraf demanded an explanation for Pakistan's 140-run loss to India in Bangladesh.
