On Saturday, Pakistan Prime Minister and former cricketer Imran Khan paid tributes to the late Abdul Qadir, who passed away due to cardiac arrest at the age of 63. Recalling his day as a cricketer, Khan said that Qadir was the life of the dressing room who used to entertain the team with his wit and humour.
Deeply saddened to hear of Abdul Qadir's passing. My prayers & condolences go to the family. Abdul Qadir was a genius, one of the greatest leg spinners of all time. And he was also the life of the dressing room entertaining the team with his wit & humour.
