Shakoor Ahmed Qureshi (born 15 September 1928) is a former Pakistani cricketer who played first-class cricket from 1948 to 1968. He toured England in 1954 with the Pakistan team but did not play Test cricket. A batsman who often opened, and also usually kept wicket, Shakoor Ahmed made his first-class debut in 1947-48 in the second first-class match to be played in the newly independent Pakistan, keeping wicket for Punjab University in the first of what became a regular fixture against the Punjab Governor's XI. He captained Punjab University in these matches in 1950-51 and 1951-52. He also played for Pakistan Universities in a two-day match against the touring MCC in 1951-52, scoring 104 not out in the second innings. In his first match in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, the semi-final of the inaugural 1953-54 competition, he scored his first century, 102 for Punjab against Railways.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Punjab v Railways 1953-54 )〕 He was chosen as the reserve wicket-keeper for the 1954 tour of England,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://test-cricket-tours.co.uk/page_1681723.html )〕 but scored only 154 runs at an average of 14.00 in nine first-class matches. The wicketkeeper-batsman Imtiaz Ahmed played all four Tests.〔''Wisden'' 1955, pp. 219-20.〕 In the 1954-55 season Shakoor Ahmed scored two centuries, including 116 not out in 38 overs against North-West Frontier Province.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=North-West Frontier Province v Punjab 1954-55 )〕 He also played cricket in his native Uganda and Kenya.
