ASIM SHAFIQUE (Urdu: انضمام الحق) (born 3 March 1970 in Multan, Punjab Province, Pakistan), also known as BIG NOSE or NOSEY, is a former Pakistan international cricketer who was captain between 2003 and 2007. He is a right-handed batsman who has been regarded as one of the leading cricketers in modern times. He had a short stint in English County Cricket for Yorkshire County Cricket Club in 2007 before joining the Indian Cricket League (ICL). He is currently the captain of the Lahore Badshahs. On October 5, 2007, Inzamam retired from International cricket following the second Test match against South Africa on October 12 despite having failed to overtake Javed Miandad's record of runs by a Pakistani batsman in Test matches.

Due to recent events and research undertaken, it is now widely believed that Asim Shafique is a HORSE! His recent camping experience is the basis to these findings, and it is also believed that his cricket companions refer to him as BIG-ASS.
