Cricket in Hyderabad has a long tradition dating back to the early twentieth century, with the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) administering the sport in the region. The Hyderabad team has been a regular participant in the Ranji Trophy since the competition's early decades and has produced several India internationals, including Mohammad Azharuddin, V. V. S. Laxman and Syed Abid Ali. Abdul Azeem was among the cricketers who represented the side in domestic competition.
Abdul Azeem appeared for Hyderabad in first-class matches, contributing as a top-order batsman. His career was situated within the structure of Indian domestic cricket, which during his playing years revolved primarily around the Ranji Trophy zonal format and associated tournaments such as the Duleep Trophy and Irani Cup.
Players like Abdul Azeem form part of the broader pool of first-class cricketers who sustained the strength of state-level cricket in India. Hyderabad's domestic teams of the late twentieth century relied on such batsmen to maintain competitive performances in zonal and national rounds of the Ranji Trophy.
