The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has officially inducted four cricketing legends into its prestigious Hall of Fame for 2024. Inzamam-ul-Haq, Misbah-ul-Haq, Mushtaq Mohammad, and Saeed Anwar are the latest icons to receive this honor, joining an elite group of players who shaped Pakistan’s cricketing legacy.

These four greats now stand alongside the likes of Imran Khan, Javed Miandad, Wasim Akram, and Waqar Younis. Their induction was the result of an independent and transparent voting process, involving cricketing legends Wasim Akram and Zaheer Abbas, former players Azhar Ali and Bismah Maroof, and esteemed journalists and analysts.
