Taslim Arif Abbasi (1 May 1954 – 14 March 2008) was a Pakistani cricketer who played in 6 Tests and 2 One-day Internationals in 1980. His score of 210*[1] for Pakistan against Australia stood for more than 20 years as the highest score made by a wicket-keeper in Test cricket.[2] Arif died in Karachi from a lung infection in 2008. He was buried at Faisal Cantonment graveyard, in Karachi.[3]
Record
In September 1978, playing for National Bank against Punjab in Lahore, before he had made his international debut, Arif became the first from Pakistan to effect ten dismissals in a first-class match.[4] His record was later broken by Wasim Yousoufi in 1997.
