Lahore: Mohammad Hussain, Pakistani cricketer who played 2 Tests and 14 ODIs between 1996 and 1998, has passed away on Monday. He was 45.

Mohammad Hussain was suffering from kidney and liver ailments.

Hussain, a left-handed batsman and slow left-arm orthodox spin bowler, played first-class cricket for a number of teams in Pakistan between 1994 and 2009.

He was involved in the "Toronto incident" with Inzamam-ul-Haq in September 1997, as the 12th man who provided a cricket bat to Inzamam before he attacked a member of the crowd.

Damn, so young. RIP.

Mohammad Hussain was the 12th Man who gave Inzamam a bat in the infamous Sahara Cup incident in Toronto in 1997.

Rip...

I remember he was left arm spinner and played in the late 90s.

He wasn't that old.

 

[Zaz]

Sad to hear Left arm orthodox who could bat Played in the late 90s when razzaq was up coming

Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun.

Wow, I remember watching him play. That's tragic.

Just on the Toronto incident, I heard Wasim Akram in an interview say he went up to Mohammad Hussain afterwards and said if Inzy asked for a sword, would you have handed him that too

Very sad news. I remember him well. Bustling all rounder who had a spectacular domestic season owing to which he was selected for Pakistan. He was very handy with both bat and ball, but such was the intense competition for places in the late 90s that he could not keep his spot. Seemed quiet and gentle on the field.

Met him when he was playing some club cricket in the UK and at some charity matches.

Nice guy who enjoyed his cricket and was a more than handy spinner and lower-order batter.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun.

He was decent spin bowling all-rounder.
