Hyderabad Ranji Trophy: Former BCCI president N. Shivlal Yadav reported that former cricketer Abdul Azeem passed away on Tuesday, April 18, in Hyderabad. The two daughters and wife of Azeem, 62, are still alive.
Importantly, Azeem received a kidney transplant in February 2023 and received dialysis up until the time of his death. When he was a member of the home squad in Hyderabad, Azeem was a well-regarded figure in the sport.
He was a gentlemanly guy both on and off the pitch, as evidenced by his choice to quit his role as a selector for the Hyderabad Cricket Players Association (HCA) when he felt the proper procedures were not being followed while selecting the State teams.
It is a significant setback for Hyderabad cricket: N. Shivlal Yadav.
Azeem played in 73 First-Class matches while he was a professional cricketer, totalling 4644 runs at a respectable average of 43.40. In his 114 innings, he scored 12 centuries and as many as 28 half-centuries.
He made his professional debut for Hyderabad in the 1979–1980 season, and in the 1986 Ranji season, he made national headlines by scoring an undefeated triple century (303*) against Tamil Nadu. The sad news of his passing was confirmed by N. Shivlal Yadav, a former president of the BCCI.
“(Abdul) Azeem was a superb cricketer who was never given the credit he merited on the highest level. a player that always stood up for the team’s goals and was very earnest. For Hyderabad cricket, it is a major setback,” according to N. Shivlal Yadav, who was mentioned in The Hindu.
Azeem was selected to serve as the head coach of the Hyderabad cricket team in September 2014. His assistant for the Ranji season of that same year was Noel David, and NS Ganesh served as the team’s fielding coach.
