Jamil Ahmed
Jamil Ahmed (date of birth unknown) was a East Pakistani cricketer who played five first-class matches for teams based in East Pakistan during the 1960s. He made his first-class debut during the 1963–64 season of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, playing a single match for East Pakistan against Bahawalpur.[1] On debut, he took 2/39 while bowling in Bahawalpur's second innings, and scored ten not out in East Pakistan's second innings, coming in third behind Mahmood Bokul and Javed Masood.[2] Jamil's next two matches came for Dacca in December 1964, during the 1964–65 edition of the Ayub Trophy, and he again played as a top-order batsman, as well as an occasional bowler. In March 1965, he also played a single match for a Dacca University and Education Board team in that season's Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, without much success.[3] His fifth and final match at first-class level came almost three years later, for Dacca University in the 1967–68 edition of the Ayub Trophy.[1] In this match, played against the East Pakistan Greens at Dacca Stadium, Jamil recorded both his best bowling figures, 3/34 from 22 overs, and his highest score, 28 runs in Dacca University's second innings,[4] although he had also reached 28 runs while playing for Dacca against Rajshahi in 1964.[5] Jamil finished his career with 95 runs and eight wickets from his five first-class matches.[6]
