Humayun Farkhan (born 4 April 1947, Lyallpur, British India) is a former Pakistani cricketer who played first-class cricket from 1964 to 1985.
A slow left-arm orthodox bowler, Farkhan made his first-class debut in the 1964-65 season, taking 5 for 60 for Sargodha against Combined Services. [1] He played occasionally in the next few years, and took 6 for 204 for Sargodha when Lahore made 774 for 9 declared in the quarter-final of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy in 1968-69. [2] In 1970-71, captaining Sargodha against Peshawar, he scored 38 (second-top score) and 36 (top score) and took 3 for 19 and 5 for 27 in a low-scoring match that Sargodha won by 94 runs. [3] In 1974-75 he took 6 for 61 and 6 for 23 for Sargodha against Lahore B, but it was not enough to prevent a 114-run loss in a match in which 40 wickets fell for 406 runs. [4]
He played no first-class cricket between the 1977-78 season and 1984–85, when Faisalabad, who had been unsuccessful in their initial first-class season in 1983-84, appointed him to captain the team in 1984-85. He led them to their first two victories that season and took 20 wickets himself at an average of 18.00. [5] In his first match he led Faisalabad to their first victory, over Gujranwala, taking seven wickets. [6] He led Faisalabad to three victories out of four matches in 1985-86, then retired from first-class cricket.
His brother, Sajjad Farkhan, also played first-class cricket for Sargodha and Faisalabad. [7]
