Early life[edit]


As a child he attended the Church Mission School (CMS) in Karachi.[1]



Career[edit]


Product of the Muslim Gymkhana in Karachi, he was picked up for the squad but in 1978 he was exposed of the moving ball. But Rasheed showed grit in the Jamaica Test of 1976–77 where most of the top order feared the mighty West Indian attack.


Is from one of the only two families in the world, apart from the Fosters of Worcestershire, to have seven siblings play first-class cricket



Coaching role[edit]


In 1984, Haroon quit first-class cricket and joined United Bank. In 1988 he coached United Bank U19s, went on to be national U19s selector and coach and selected Shahid Afridi who lived near him. Later he was asked to send replacements for the injury hit Pakistan side in Kenya where Afridi was sent & he made historical 102(37).[2]



Incidents[edit]


Harood Rasheed escaped a hit and run attack for not selecting a player advised on a phone in 1995.


Harood was pulled out of the car near a Karachi Shopping Centre by youngsters for his slow batting in the 1979 Semi Final.
