And as soon as he first laid eyes on Miandad as a youngster in the 1970s. He famously predicted Miandad as “the find of the decade.” He was not mistaken as a batting sensation commonplace in the 80 s and early 90 s. Miandad held the record for most runs. As he scored 645 runs in the first 11 innings of his Test career.
