A middle-order batsman and occasional bowler and wicketkeeper, Iqbal Chaudhri was the leading scorer in the 1957–58 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy. He scored 392 runs at an average of 56.00, helping Bahawalpur to win the trophy.[1] In the final, he scored 51 and 38 in Bahawalpur’s victory over Karachi C.[2]

The rest of his career was only moderately successful. He moved to Sargodha for the 1961-62 season. He made his highest score in his final match, a draw against Multan in 1969-70, when he made 72, which was also the highest score in the match.[3]
