A wicket keeper and opening batsman, Abdul Aziz played eight first-class matches for Karachi, before he was tragically killed after being struck by the ball. He was a student at S. M. College and worked for the Pakistan State Bank.[2] In the semi-final of the 1958/59 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, Abdul Aziz was the non-striker as Hanif Mohammed was run out for 499 on the last ball of the third day's play.[3] This was the highest-score in first-class cricket that stood until Brian Lara scored 501 not out in 1994. Karachi won the match by an innings and 479 runs. A week later, whilst batting in the first-innings of the Quaid-e-Azam final against Pakistan Combined Services, Aziz was struck "over the heart by a slow off break from Dildwar Awan [sic]. While preparing to receive the next ball, Aziz fell to the ground and never regained conciousness", dying en route to hospital.[2] It is believed the blow aggravated an existing, undiagnosed heart condition.[3] A player who does not bat in a innings is recorded in the scorecard as "absent". In some scorecards, Aziz is recorded as "absent dead"[3][4] in the second innings. Aziz's death was the third instance of the death of a cricketer during a first-class cricket match, succeeding those of Maurice Nichol and Charlie Bull in the thirties. George Summers died in 1870 of a head injury sustained in a match, but a few days after it. Two of Aziz's brothers also played first-class cricket: Abdul Kadir played one match for North-West Frontier Province;[5] Abdur Rasheed played 28 matches between 1953/54 and 1964/65.[6] Notes ^ Became part of Pakistan in 1947 ^ a b c Haigh, Gideon ed.
