In a video message, the three-time ICC umpire of the year winner said, “I thank Allah for completing 350 international games, which is a world record.”
“I’m thankful to Pakistan Cricket Board, International Cricket Council (ICC) and this country, because whatever I am today is because of Pakistan. I gained respect due to Pakistan.”

“Pakistan has given me Pride of Performance and Sitara-e-Imtiaz. I am thankful to the people of this beautiful nation, who always prayed for me. I request them to continue praying for me, so I can make Pakistan proud again,” he added.
Dar achieved this feat during the third T20 International between Pakistan and West Indies at the National Stadium Karachi on Tuesday.
