With his accomplishment, Khan joins an exclusive group of just seven bowlers—Tim Southee, Shakib Al Hasan, Rashid Khan, Ish Sodhi, Lasith Malinga, and Mustafizur Rehman—who have taken 100 T20I wickets globally.
It’s important to note that Nida Dar, an all-rounder for Pakistan’s women’s side, has 100 wickets in T20 international cricket.
A series sweep over Afghanistan in Sharjah was avoided thanks to Pakistan’s victory in the third T20I. Pakistan put on a strong showing after dropping the first two games, holding their opponents to a total of 183 runs while smashing them by 66 runs to win the series 2-1.
The team’s remarkable performance showcased their talent and tenacity, and fans can’t wait to see what they will be able to do in the future.
