Watch the remarkable Test debut of Pakistan’s technically sound right-hander Ali Naqvi, who stunned a world-class South African bowling attack in Rawalpindi, October 1997. Facing legendary bowlers like Allan Donald, Shaun Pollock, Brett Schultz, Brian McMillan, and Jacques Kallis, young Ali Naqvi stood tall and delivered a gritty knock of 115 runs off 270 balls in over 5 hours of solid batting.<br /><br />This was a dream debut — full of composure, elegance, and classical strokeplay — as Naqvi made a strong statement in his very first appearance on the international stage. Despite this incredible start, his Test career was surprisingly short, but this innings remains one of the most memorable debut performances in Pakistan’s cricket history.<br /><br />📌 Don’t forget to like, share, and comment — Do you think Ali Naqvi deserved more chances in international cricket?<br /><br />I hope you like the video of Ali Naqvi’s Dream Start in Test Cricket | Century on Debut vs SA 1st Test 1997 Extended Highlights. <br /><br />#AliNaqvi #TestDebut #PakistanCricket #SouthAfricaCricket #RawalpindiTest #1997Cricket #CricketHistory #DebutCentury #AliNaqvi115 #PakistanVsSouthAfrica #ClassicCricket #CricketLegends
