Cricketers are pouring in tweets wishing for former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq's recovery after he suffered a heart attack. Inzamam had suffered a heart attack on September 27 and was rushed to the hospital, where he underwent angioplasty and was discharged later.
Inzamam shot into prominence during Pakistan's 1992 World Cup-winning campaign. He is the highest run-scorer from his country in ODIs, scoring 11,701 runs in 375 matches. He is also the third-highest run-getter in Test cricket for Pakistan with 8829 runs in 119 matches.
After retiring from international cricket in 2007, Inzamam has dabbled in as a batting coach apart from being the head coach of Afghanistan. He also served as the chief selector of Pakistan from 2016 to 2019.
