Shan Masood Khan was born on October 14, 1989, in Kuwait City, Kuwait. His family relocated to Karachi, Pakistan, following the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. Masood pursued his education in the United Kingdom, attending Stamford School in Lincolnshire and later Durham University, where he studied economics. He furthered his academic pursuits at Loughborough University through a distance learning program, focusing on Management and Sports Sciences. Masood’s father, Mansoor Masood Khan, a banker with a background in provincial-level hockey and a keen interest in cricket, influenced his son’s involvement in the sport. Mansoor later served as a member of the governing board in the Pakistan Cricket Board in 2014.
Masood made his first-class debut in the 2007–08 season of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, scoring 54 for Karachi Whites. His international Test debut came in October 2013 against South Africa, where he scored 75 runs, becoming only the third Pakistani batsman to achieve a half-century and a duck on debut. In July 2015, he scored his maiden Test century against Sri Lanka, contributing to Pakistan’s highest successful chase. He was awarded a central contract by the Pakistan Cricket Board for the 2018–19 season. Masood has also captained various domestic teams, including Southern Punjab in the 2019–20 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, and Bagh Stallions in the Kashmir Premier League.
His career includes notable stints in English county cricket, signing with Derbyshire for the 2022 season, where he scored back-to-back double centuries, a first for the club. He continued his county career by captaining Yorkshire County Cricket Club for the 2023 season. In November 2023, Masood was appointed captain of the Pakistan national cricket team in Test cricket. Under his leadership, Pakistan secured a 2-1 series win against England in 2024, a significant achievement after an initial period with no wins in his first six Tests as captain.
