The Burewala Express
Born in Burewala in the Vehari area of Punjab on November 16, 1971, he was raised in Sharjah, where his father was a contract worker. Returning to Pakistan in his adolescence, Waqar played in obscurity until, in 1988, he was noticed by Imran Khan while bowling in a televised local knock-out game.
So impressed was Imran, that the seventeen-year-old was immediately drafted into the national squad. And Waqar did not disappoint.
