Irshaad Ally is a contestant from Survivor South Africa: Malaysia.
Being the strongest member of Iban, Irshaad found himself in a comfortable position for the majority of the game. Despite his strength, Irshaad found himself in a minority of one as Iban slowly dwindled in size after the tribe switch. Angie Bennett's growing hostility towards him and his increasing self isolation allowed for former Bajau members Amanda Hoosen and Dyke Higginson to swing Angie to their side and eliminate him in a 3-1 vote one round short of the merge.

Age: 29
Birth date: 1/3/1978
Star sign: Pisces
Lives in: Maitland, Cape Town
Occupation: Graphic Designer
Irshaad had a rough youth: he grew up on the Cape Flats, never finished school, got involved with the wrong people, did hard drugs and got arrested. But then he re-invented his life and worked his way up from a runner at an ad agency to a graphic designer. He has completed the Argus (after one day's training) and jumps off 20m cliffs for fun.
Why could he survive in Malaysia? This action man has survived against all odds in real life. He trusts his gut and is afraid of nothing.
Describes himself as... "the personification of the saying 'persevere and you will achieve."[2]
