Club Debut - 2011

1XI No - 379


Iftikhar joined Ponteland partway through the 2011 season, having started the season with Morpeth. Played for South Northumberland in 2010.

After his return from university in 2013 scored an unbeaten 85 for the 2XI batting at number 8 off just 37 balls with 6 sixes and 7 fours.

In 2014 scored fifty for the 1XI against Alnmouth & Lesbury off 20 balls, at the time the second fastest known fifty for Ponteland and possibly the fastest for the 1XI but not all games are scored ball-by-ball so there may have been others quicker. The innings saw him win the Lawson Rosebowl for 1XI performance of the season.

Despite work restricting him to just 13 games 2018 was still his best season at that point with the bat (411 runs) and ball (22 wickets) which took him past both 100 wickets and 1,000 runs in the 1XI, the 10th player to do so. Retained the Batsman of the season award.

In June 2022 at Alnmouth & Lesbury scored 31 off 10 balls and alongside Jonny Appleby they scored 50 off 16 balls the fastest 50 partnership known for the side. His 64 against Morpeth on 2nd of July made him just the 15th player to reach 2,000 runs for the 1XI. Finished the season with 397 runs and 31 wickets, just the third non-pro/overseas player to pass 350 runs and 30 wickets in a season after Alan Kennedy and Jeff Oliver since 1947
