Witness a rare moment of batting aggression from Pakistan's legendary all-rounder Imran Khan in the 3rd Test match against India at Bombay (now Mumbai) in December 1979. Known more for his fast bowling and inspirational leadership, Imran surprised everyone with his fearless approach to batting on a viciously turning pitch.

In this highlight, Imran Khan took on India’s talented off-spinner Shivlal Yadav, smashing 4, 6, 4 in quick succession. It was a pitch that had already troubled top-order batsmen and caused panic in the Pakistani lineup. But Imran's natural instinct to dominate bowlers came to the fore in this thrilling passage of play.

Though he only scored 19 runs off 28 balls, this short cameo was filled with intent and power. Relive this forgotten gem from the golden days of cricket!
