Khalid Hasan (14 July 1937 – 3 December 2013) was a Pakistani cricketer who represented the national side in a single Test match in 1954.[1] Only 16 years and 352 days old on debut, he was the youngest Test player at the time, and remains the youngest player to play only a single Test match.[2][3] As the match was dominated by England, he only got to bowl in one innings, however he did achieve the feat of bowling Denis Compton - albeit after the latter had scored a double century. Khalid, a right-arm leg spinner, played 17 first-class matches in total,[4] 14 of which came on Pakistan's 1954 tour of the British Isles.[5]
