Pakistan fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi on Sunday became the first Pakistani bowler to take four wickets off four consecutive deliveries in a T20 match.
Afridi performed this feat while representing Hampshire against Middlesex in a T20 Vitality Blast match.
In the match played in Southampton, Afridi dismissed both of Middlesex’s top-scorers before dismantling their tail in the decisive 18th over. Pakistan’s Aamir Yameen has taken four wickets off four balls in T10 cricket while Ali Gohar, Fazal Akbar, Kamran Hussain, Khalid Usman, Tabish Khan, and Taj Wali have also taken four wickets off four balls in first-class cricket.
