Majid Jahangir Khan, a former cricket player, specialist batsman and former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, was born in 1946 in Ludhiana, in the state of Punjab in India. Majid Khan grew up in Lahore, the capital of the Punjab in Pakistan. His father, Jahangir Khan, had played Test cricket for the Indian cricket team. Khan had started out as a pace bowler, but an injury and doubts over his technique converted him into an off-spin bowler and batsman. He also played for the teams of Glamorgan and Cambridge University in England, for Queensland, Australia, and in Pakistan for Pakistan International Airlines, Rawalpindi and the province of Punjab.
Khan's first-class career spanned from 1961 to 1985 and he played 63 Tests for Pakistan, scoring 3,931 runs and making 8 centuries, and scoring over 27,000 first-class runs and making 73 first-class centuries, with 128 fifties.
Majid Khan was also an important Pakistan Test captain. After retirement, Khan became a match referee, and later an administrator with the Pakistan Cricket Board. He remains an active and important influence for the game in Pakistan today. Imran Khan, the legendary Pakistani ex-captain and fast bowler, is his cousin, and Bazid Khan, Majid's son, has begun a Test career for Pakistan
