Career
Iltaf was plucked from obscurity when former Pakistan number one Jaffar Khan was unavailable for the 2010 World Cup qualifiers against Iraq. He was on the bench for the 7-0 hammering by Iraq. Foreign the second leg, Head coach Akhtar Mohiuddin selected him for the starting line up and he made his debut.
Iltaf surprised everyone when he prevented Iraq scoring despite their numerous attempts, with the match ending nil-nil.
With that performance he became the new number 1. Iltaf is still club-less and normally plays in the local Saturday and Sunday Leagues.
In a mysterious development, despite being called up for the SAFF Cup 2008, Iltaf failed to go to Pakistan and hence was unavailable for the national team camp.
