The best bowler of the Champions Trophy 2017, Hassan Ali, breaks the record of Afghan spinner Rashid Khan.
Experienced Pakistani fast bowler Hassan Ali has set a new record in T20 cricket. According to the details, Hassan Ali took 4 wickets in the match against Leicestershire in the Vitality Blast yesterday. During this time, he crossed a major milestone and set the world record for the fastest 350 wickets in T20 cricket.
The best bowler of the Champions Trophy 2017, Hassan Ali, achieved this feat in just 243 matches and broke the record of Afghan spinner Rashid Khan. Rashid Khan had completed the mark of 350 wickets in 251 matches. After this new achievement, cricket circles and fans are paying him a lot of tribute.
The record added another feather to his extensive global T20 resume. Hassan has been a staple in domestic T20 cricket, leading the attack for teams like Islamabad United, Peshawar Zalmi, and Karachi Kings in the PSL, alongside stints in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) and Australia’s Big Bash League (BBL) with the Adelaide Strikers.
While subcontinental pacers often rely heavily on reverse swing, Hassan adapted brilliantly to English T20 conditions. He focused heavily on bowling hard lengths, utilizing a clever mix of slower balls, and attacking the stumps with pinpoint yorkers.
