Humayun Farhat (Urdu: ہمایوں فرحت; born 24 January 1981) is a Pakistani former cricketer who played for the Pakistan national cricket team in 2001 as a wicket-keeper in his only test cricket match. He is one of two brothers to have played test cricket for Pakistan.
Family
His brother, Imran Farhat has also played international cricket for Pakistan.[1][2]
Career
He played one Test match, in March 2001 against New Zealand and five One Day International matches for Pakistan. He is the only wicketkeeper to have played Test cricket who has not recorded a single dismissal.[3]
He played in five One Day Internationals and a one test match for Pakistan. Due to the presence of wicketkeepers like Moin Khan and Rashid Latif, he could not really cement his place in the national team. In 2007, he participated in the unofficial Indian Cricket League (ICL), representing Lahore Badshahs.[4] His participation in ICL meant that he was banned from the Pakistan team for life.[5] The rise of Kamran Akmal as the first-choice wicket-keeper in the late 2000's further dented his chances in the national team.
He retired from domestic cricket after the 2014–15 season, having played more than a hundred List A and first-class matches.[6]
