Born
Jansher Khan was born in Nawakille, near Peshawar. He followed Jahangir Khan as the best player of the sport, even though he came from a different family, and he took over the top spot at the end of the 1980s.
He won the World Open eight times and the British Open six times. His stamina and speed around the court made him hard to outlast in long rallies.
