Shadab Khan, the promising fast bowler from Pakistan, and Ihsanullah shared six wickets. With his 3-13, Shadab became the first male Pakistani player to record 100 T20 wickets. Ihsanullah’s quick, short-pitched offerings helped him score 3-29 runs.
After Saim Ayub narrowly missed reaching his first T20 half-century by one run, Shadab added a late flourish with the bat by slamming a 17-ball 28.
The bowler, who had had three wickets, became the first Pakistani bowler to reach this milestone, earning him considerable accolades on social media.
With his accomplishment, Shadab joins a select club of only seven other bowlers who have accomplished this feat. The other six are Lasith Malinga, Mustafizur Rehman, Rashid Khan, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, and Shakib Al Hasan.
Nida Dar, an all-rounder for Pakistan’s women’s squad, has 100 wickets in T20 international cricket, which is noteworthy.
Pakistan avoided a series sweep against Afghanistan in Sharjah thanks to their victory in the third Twenty20 International. Pakistan put out a strong effort despite dropping the first two games, with their bowlers holding off 183 runs to secure a 2-1 series win by crushing the opposition by 66 runs.
The team’s amazing performance was a testament to their talent and tenacity, and fans will undoubtedly be excited to see what they will accomplish in the future.
