Mohammad Javed Miandad (Urdu: محمد جاوید میانداد ) (born June 12, 1957 in Karachi, Pakistan), popularly known as Javed Miandad (Urdu: جاوید میانداد) is a former Pakistani cricketer who played for the Pakistan national cricket team between 1975 and 1996. He is generally regarded as Pakistan's greatest ever batsman, and among the top tier in cricket history. He also had three successful but controversial coaching runs with the Pakistan national team.

Career
He made his Test debut against New Zealand at Lahore on 9 October 1976 and One Day International debut against West Indies at Edgbaston, Birmingham in the Cricket World Cup 1975.

Aged 18, Javed made his debut with a century and soon after scored a double century in the same series to break George Headley's 47 year old record of the youngest player to score a double century. Javed was the youngest player to score 100 runs on his debut. He scored a century in his first appearance against India in the course of which he completed 1000 runs in 23 innings to become the second youngest to score 1000 runs at the age of 21 years and 26 days.

Javed Miandad played 124 Tests and has batted the most innings for a Pakistani (189). His aggregate of 8,832 Test runs is a Pakistan record, while his 23 centuries and 43 fifties were national records until recently broken by Inzamam-ul-Haq. Javed's Test career batting average of 52.57 puts him among the top flight of batsmen to have played international cricket, and he is one of only two batsmen in cricket history, the other being Herbert Sutcliffe, to maintain an average of above 50 throughout a career of more than 20 innings. He scored six double centuries which is the most by a Pakistani and 5th in the all-time list. His highest score was 280 not out vs India.

Javed learned his craft as a youngster on the tough, blue-collar streets of Karachi, and not surprisingly his technique flew in the face of most cricket coaching textbooks. His unorthodox but distinctive square-on batting stance and equally unconventional split-handed grip never hindered him though.

Allan Border of Australia was Javed Miandad's lone stumping off the bowling of Azhar Khan at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium in March 1980. Miandad kept in the dying stages of a drawn match so that wicket-keeper Taslim Arif could bowl - and take his only Test wicket. It was off-spinning all-rounder Azhar Khan's only test and sole test wicket.

Javed sits amongst the elite cricket club of batsman of his era to maintain an average of above 50. His legacy is shared by the most accomplished batsman of his era, which is also known as the era of deadly fast bowling. Batsmen who sit in the club are Vivian Richards, Allan Border and Gary Sobers.

Javed was also referred to as the "Golden Wicket" with regards to his long innings that he would bat. Getting him out in a test match would be a real achievement for many of his opponents. He was also found to be the best batsman ever against spin bowling and would pioneer and master the "sweep" and "reverse sweep" shot, which later not many batsman played as well as him. Richie Richardson of West Indies and Salim Malik of Pakistan were probably the only two who came close in those shots.

World Cup 1992
Javed Miandad was instrumental in the Pakistan's victory in the 1992 World Cup in Australia. He played his part to perfection and the team, especially the batting department lobbied around him. He played his innings with maturity and patience as was required of him. He kept his wicket in hand till the last and guided Pakistan to home in the Semi Final against New Zealand and in the final scored a critical 50 when Pakistan batted first and the openers went back to the pavilion cheaply.

Australasia Cup 1986
One of the highlights of Javed's career came during the Australasia Cup in 1986. The Pakistanis had managed to make it to the final, and were up against India. India batted first and scored 245 runs, leaving Pakistan with a required run rate of 4.92 per over. Miandad came in to bat at number 4, with the score at 39 for 2 wickets, and the required run rate had risen to 7 an over. With four runs required off the last ball, Javed struck a six that sealed the victory for Pakistan.

Viv Richards, was once quoted saying, "If there was any batsman whom I could choose to bat for my life, it would be Javed Miandad." Javed was also complimented by commentator and former New Zealand captain John Wright, who refused to concede victory to India, saying, "As long as Javed is there, anything can happen". Javed referred to this in his autobiography as, "One of the best compliments he has received in all his cricket years."

Centuries and Performance
Javed Miandad was one of the most consistent batsman and he bought amazing strength in the batting lineup specially in the middle order. Javed scored centuries against every team he played against and in every country of the world. He was amongst the very special batsman to maintain great averages at home and away.

Controversies and fan base
Javed had a very simple unsophisticated upbringing. He maintained a very simple and down to earth life style unlike other Pakistani stars. His attitude of not indulging in politics which at his time had shaken the Pakistan Cricket Board and some other Pakistani players like Zaheer Abbas and Imran Khan. He was the most successful captain of Pakistan, even more successful than Imran Khan but he was declined the captaincy. Further more, despite being the best batsman in team he was not selected for the World Cup in 1992. Only when the Pakistani batting order collapsed in the warm up matches he was hurriedly sent flying to Australia. After that he was again over looked which stopped certainly one of the best batsman to grace cricket field from achieving his dream of 10,000 test runs still not achieved by any Pakistani batsman. At that time he was in form and fit.

He was also stopped from achieving his dream of reaching a 365 runs at that time the highest test total by any batsman by Imran Khan, when he was not out on 280 and there was still ample time left in the test match.

Haseeb Akram, one of International cricket analyst said "It was Imran's dirty games to maintain his legacy and take all the credit to himself which overshadowed the great man's achievements and services to Pakistan.

It was only when he couldn't control his emotions during a press briefing when he wasn't selected after 1992 World Cup that brought his fans on the streets of Karachi and Pakistan in thousands, something which still Imran Khan couldn't achieve despite being in politics for 15 years.

He has a fan club on facebook "Javed Miandad" and he has written an autobiography "Cutting Edge" for his fans
