Renowned for his combative skills, Moin Khan has spent most of his career slugging it out with Rashid Latif for the keeper's gloves. His batting ability has generally kept him in front although Latif is a better keeper. An effective rather than stylish batsman, Moin relishes a crisis and has held together Pakistan's lower order time and again. His quick feet and improvisation are even more productive in one-day cricket where he scores at speed. Behind the stumps, he is the chirpiest of keepers and the stump mike has revealed his full repertoire to the world. "Well bowled" and "shabash" are his most familiar soundbites. As captain, Moin struggled to get his way amid Pakistan's incessant in-fighting and was too defensive, as when England triumphed in the gloom of Karachi. Moin played through most of the 2003-04 season, missing only the last two Tests against India due to injury. However, his wicketkeeping form wasn't entirely convincing, and with Kamran Akmal staking a strong claim, Moin's days as an international cricketer might be drawing to a close.

Moin Khan: Former Wicket-Keeper, Current Wife-Beater
Posted on January 18, 2007
Back in July, ATP had posted a picture of former world squash champion Jansher Khan being hauled away in a police van on charges of trespass and violent attack on a woman. Now, Moin Khan, former cricket captain and wicketkeeper, has joined Jansher in the Hall of Disgrace for beating his wife.
Shame on you, both of you. You may once have been stars. You are stars no more. And, Moin, even if you have been freed on bail, that does not absolve you in our eyes for maltreating your wife. No Sir. This is not a private matter between man and wife. This is a matter of national disgrace. But my anger at this incident is making me run ahead of the story.
So, first the news as reported in the Daily Times (17 January, 2006):
KARACHI: Former Pakistan captain Moin Khan was arrested by the Darakhshan police late Monday night after his wife Tasleem alias Shama Seher made a phone call to Madadgar 15, complaining that he had beaten her.
According to Town Police Officer (TPO) ASP Azad Khan, the police received a phone call from Seher after midnight. A police team visiting the house found Seher standing outside and Moin Khan screaming at her from within. After a struggle, Moin Khan was taken in preventive detention under Section 151 of the CrPC, the TPO said. The couple was taken to the Darakhshan police station from where Moin was taken to JPMC for a medical examination. Seher was also taken to JPMC for a medical examination later on.
“If injuries are reported by the doctors examining her or a blood test confirms that he was intoxicated, the law will take its course,” said the TPO. Darakhshan SHO Inspector Zia Rizvi told Daily Times that this was a domestic matter, “but we brought it on to the court record”. Moin was produced in a local court and was granted bail. Seher told Daily Times that Moin had been disturbed for three days. “This isn’t something new, its been like this for a while,” she added. “He accused me of being involved with his friends. I asked why he was beating me and he told me that he hated the look of my face. He said, “Tum apnay gireban me jhanko, apni shakal dekho, apna character dekho” … There’s no special reason. Things were normal but I don’t know what had happened as recently he started to get harsh after drinking. I think that Moin still thinks of himself as a young star, Seher, a showbiz person herself, said. “Cricketers have the same life … (Another Karachi cricketers) wife recently separated and got custody of the children. Complaints remain as (many) cricketers treat their wives like this. Woh apnay beewiyon ke sath is tarha ka rawaiya rakhtay hain … Is tarha kay rawaiye mein kon sath reh sakta he? The problem with (some) cricketers is that they are getting better options outside the house. Unhain ghar ki murghi daal barabar lagti he.”
Both Moin Khan and the police seem to say that this is a ‘personal’ or ‘domestic’ matter. No, it really is not. It is a social matter. A national matter.
This case catches our attention because the man is a former cricket star and the wife a former TV personality. But the story here is repeated every day and goes unnoticed and unreported. His intoxication obviously made matters worse, but the malady here is deeper than alcoholism. It is the way women are treated. The Jansher case was one example, but there have been many others that we have raised here on ATP. Wife-beating is a serious social sin and the sinners here are not only those who do so, it is also those who condone it in the name of tradition or because it is a ‘personal matter’, and it is also those of see it happening and choose to remain quiet.

Abdul Razzaq (Urdu: عبد الرزاق) (born 2 December 1979, Lahore, Punjab) is a Pakistani cricketer and member of the Indian Cricket League since 2007.
Razzaq is a right-handed batsman and right-arm fast-medium bowler. His bowling, at one time rapid, has now seen an increase on line and length, although sacrificing some pace. He emerged onto the world cricket scene in November 1996 when he made his One Day International debut against the touring Zimbabweans at his home ground in Lahore a month short of his seventeenth birthday.
Career
Although originally a bowler, his batting soon improved and he became known as an all-rounder. Razzaq has achieved the double of 1000 Test runs and 100 Test wickets. He has the ability to both hit out or graft for runs, and this versatility has given him the experience of batting at every position. He is also a useful and accurate fast bowler who has troubled some of the world's leading batsmen. He had to wait just over three years to make his Test debut for Pakistan, eventually doing so against Australia in Brisbane in November 1999.
Abdul Razzaq claims to have learned while playing under Wasim Akram. One of the things that he has learned from Wasim Akram is his fast arm action which makes it hard to predict at what speed the ball is going to be pitched.
As one of the game's most effective sloggers, Abdul Razzaq bats with a long handle and has pioneered clearing the front foot. The precarious technique has been used since by other batsmen, most notably Jacob Oram, to different degrees of success. However, his batting is generally ineffective against spin bowling, particularly in Test matches. He has also been criticized by some for his batting extremes: while a hard-hitting one-day batsman, he is also a stonewaller in the extreme mode, sometimes batting hours in single figures during Tests. His Test batting has been criticized, and it has been suggested that he play his one-day game in order to be more effective. It may be that Razzaq's essential role in the Test lineup is as a stonewalling batsman.
Razzaq was involved in the ACC Asian XI that took on the ICC World XI in the World Cricket Tsunami Appeal charity match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in January 2005. As of May 2005 Razzaq remains an integral part of Pakistan's Test and one-day squads and is considered especially vital in the ODI team, where his all-round skills make him an important asset to the squad.
In the 1999-2000 Carlton and United Series that he rose to fame Razzaq was named man of the series for his all round performance. In a pool match in Hobart against India, Razzaq scored a half century and took five wickets. In that same tournament he hit Glenn McGrath for 5 fours in an over. Razzaq is also the youngest player in the world to take a Test hat trick.
Abdul Razzaq has achieved two centuries and twenty-one fifties in one-day cricket. His highest one-day score, 112, was made against South Africa in 2002, where he shared a partnership of 257 runs with Saleem Elahi. His second century, an unbeaten 107, was made against Zimbabwe in Multan in 2004. On this occasion, he saved Pakistan from a disastrous start and eventually won them the match. His first fifty came steadily in 90 balls, before accelerating in the second fifty, which was scored in just 21. Also in 2003-2004, he launched a rapid 89 off 40 balls against New Zealand, whose captain Stephen Fleming called him the "best hitter" in the world.[1]
With the ball, Abdul Razzaq experienced a steady decline in pace and performance from the 2003 World Cup to late 2004. In this period he was used, more than anything, as a containing bowler. However, from 2005 to the end of 2006, his bowling regained its earlier consistency and guile, if not its pace.
His batting remained consistent from 2000 to 2006, although his Test place was never secure, but a single poor series with both bat and ball in 2007 against South Africa, coupled with an injury that forced him out of the 2007 World Cup, saw him dropped from the 2007 Twenty20 World Cup, a decision that received widespread criticism.
His bowling has also won Pakistan many matches; his career-best figures are 6 wickets for 35 runs. Another memorable performance was against Sri Lanka at Sharjah in 1999, where after Pakistan were bundled out for 196 runs, and he took 5 for 31 to tie the match.
In the 2005/2006 Test series against India, Razzaq took 9 wickets and hit 205 runs in the two Tests he played, moving him up ICC rankings.
He has played at English county level for Middle*** and Worcestershire.
Despite such an impressive statistical base Razzaq's place in the Pakistan National Team has been marred by strange injuries and unexplained absences. In 2005 it was revealed that he was suffering an addiction to spinach which was causing him to suffer from nausea and sickness whilst playing. This lead to him being known as "Popeye" by teammates.[2]
On August 20, 2007 Razzaq announced his retirement from international cricket as a protest against his omission from the World Twenty20 squad.[3]
On October 27, 2007 Razzaq took back his decision to retire following discussions with his local club and long-time coach, saying, "Maybe I made that [decision to retire] in the heat of the moment."[4] However, Razzaq's international career remains in doubt due to his participation in the inaugral Indian Cricket League.[5]
