The left-arm pacer bagged four wickets in the opening over

LAHORE (Web Desk) – Pakistan pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi created history while playing for Nottinghamshire county against Warwickshire in the T20 Blast game at Trent Bridge on Friday.

The left-arm pacer produced stellar show with ball as he took four wickets in first over of the innings. It is for the first time in the tournament’s history that a bowler achieved four-wicket haul in the opening over of a game.

The 23-year-old removed opener Alex Davies with a toe-crushing Yorker and then sent Chris Benjamin to pavilion for a golden duck. He later dismissed Dan Mousley who played the delivery straight into the hands of Olly Stone at Cover off the fifth delivery of the over.

 

Mr Afridi then bowled out Ed Barnard to complete four wickets in the same over.
