A few years ago, I tried to track down the original scorebook and contacted a few scorers, but unfortunately couldn’t find it. Most of the old scorebooks apparently ended up in “raddi” once they were completed. – at Lahore, Pakistan
Regarding the fastest 100 in first-class cricket in Pakistan, the only source of Shahzaib Hasan’s 45-ball century is my email to fellow statisticians in 2014, based on information provided by the scorers. A few colleagues and I are now trying to locate the original scorebook.

Seven players replaced by the same selection committee, two of whose members were on tour. So, who replaced the head coach? Was it the same committee—which includes the head coach? #PakistanCricket – at Lahore, Pakistan

“Trend setters” setting a brand-new trend in Pakistan cricket — replacing 7 players and the head coach during an ongoing Test tour! There’s a BIG question mark over the selection committee, which itself is operating without a Chief Selector! #PAKvENG #Pakistan – at Lahore, Pakistan
