Qadir, who would have turned 64 on September 15, was known for his dancing action and was used as an attacking option by Imran Khan during the 70’s and 80s. Qadir went on to play 67 Tests, taking 236 wickets with a best of 9-65 against England in 1987. These figures are still the best by the Pakistani bowler in a Test innings. He also grabbed 132 wickets in 102 One Day Internationals.
