A handy lower-order batsman and off-spin bowler, Mohammad Tauqir has been representing United Arab Emirates since 1996, when he played for his country in the Asian Cricket Council Trophy.
The 43-year-old made his one-day international debut against India in 2004, scoring a half-century.
His best ODI bowling performance to date came against Sri Lanka in 2008 when Tauqir took 2-47.
Now UAE’s vice-captain, the Dubai native returned to the UAE team in 2014 after a four-year absence and will play in his first ICC Cricket World Cup in 2015.
