Rashidul Hasan
Rashidul Hasan was one of the most pleasant of the pakistani
players of his era.A team man to the core, he had the singular distinction
of never letting the side down.
Only one of the two, the other being Manzoor Junior, to have won every
title during the span of their careers,from the Junior World Cup gold
right upto the ultimate honour in the right side, as the right trio was
of overwhelming signigicance in pakistan's attack. In fact, with Rashid
providing the back, Kalim in the wing and Manzoor at inside, pakistan's
right side was never short of ideas or thrust, a model in efficency.
In the crucial initial part of his career, Rashid may have benefitted
with a defender of elder brother Manzoo's calibre, such a tower of strength
for any team, playing at his back and that must have helped him blossom
into one of the best half-backs of hid era.

Like saeed Anwar berore
him, Rashid intrinsic value in attack cannot be overstated, as he played
with his wing rather effectively and at most times was the sixth forward
for he was not shy of moving right up to the goal mouth if he found space.
At the same time, he was solid in defence and a hard-tackler
