Daud Khan (1912–1979) was a cricket player and umpire. He played for the Sindh cricket team before and after Pakistan's independence from India. He later became a Test umpire.
Daud played 20 first-class matches as a middle-order batsman for Sind between 1936 and 1947.[1] His highest score was 74 not out against Bombay in the Ranji Trophy in 1938-39.[2]
Khan stood as an umpire in 136 first-class matches in Pakistan between 1948 and 1976, most of them in Karachi, including nine finals of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy. Between 1955 and 1973, he officiated in 14 Tests.[3] Along with Idrees Baig he stood in the first Test ever played in Pakistan, the First Test against India in Dacca beginning on New Year's Day 1955.[4]
The Daud Khan Memorial Cricket Tournament, a 40-over competition held annually among clubs in Karachi, is named in his honour.
