Christine Ishaque started her professional career - at that time still under her maiden name Pohl - at DJK / TV Aschaffenburg. In 1993 she was voted the second best female basketball player in the women's basketball league and the second best German female athlete of the year.

On November 8, 1995, she wrote basketball history with Wemex Berlin. In the 285-0 win in the cup game against Osnabrücker SC , she scored 74 points. The OSC had only traveled with the district league team to protest against the fact that the game had not been postponed.

She came to Marburg via BC Berlin in 1996 (at that time the basketball team was still a division of VfL Marburg ). In 2001 she was voted basketball woman of the year ( MVP ) of the 1st women's basketball division ( DBBL ) and Marburg sportswoman of the year . With BC Marburg she won the double in 2003 , winning the German Cup and the German Championship . In the decisive final game at the then favorite TSV Wasserburg , a few minutes before the end, she managed to block an opposing three-point attempt, secure the ball and then complete it to the preliminary basket.

After differences with the coach, Christine Ishaque moved to BG Dorsten before the 2003/04 season and became German cup winner and runner-up with this. The following year she moved back to BC Marburg, who had meanwhile made a change of coach. In 2005/06, despite knee problems, she finished the season with an average of 20.0 points, but was unable to play in the 2006/07 season due to a meniscus injury and pregnancy. Thereupon she ended her first division career as a player and worked until 2007 as a trainer at the Girls Basketball Performance Center Marburg e. V. In the 2014/2015 season she was reactivated in the second half of the then pointless regional division Krofdorf-Gleiberg and played her first game under her former Marburg coach Uwe Scheidemann in the defeat of Krofdorf-Gleiberg in the second team of BC Marburg.

In her debut in the senior national team on May 24, 1991 in Leimen (Baden) (71:87 against Poland , friendly game), she scored three points.

Christine Ishaque played at three European Women's Championships and won the bronze medal in 1997.

In the 145th and last appearance in the national jersey , she scored the last two of 819 points on September 11, 2005 at the European Championship game in Ankara (98:64 against Romania ).
