Malik Miran Bakhsh was born on 20 April 1907 in Rawalpindi, British India. His father was a groundsman at the Pindi Club Ground. [1]
Bakhsh made his first-class cricket debut in 1950, at the age of 43, representing Commander-in-Chief's Eleven. [1] Before his first-class debut, he played in two day matches against West Indies and Commonwealth cricket team. [1]
At the age of 47 years and 284 days, he made his Test debut against India at Lahore, making him the second oldest Test debutant, behind James Southerton. [2] Unusually, this was only his second first-class cricket match. [1]
A tall off-spinner, he had taken five wickets in a two-day match against the touring West Indians in 1948/49, and 10 in another two-day match against the Commonwealth XI in 1949/50.

[4] His best bowling figures came in a match for Combined Services at Dacca in 1956/57, when he took 6 for 15 to help dismiss East Pakistan Whites for 33 runs. [5] [6]
