Naseem Shah, the highly talented fast bowler from Pakistan, has broken a new world record in the field of ODI cricket. The 20-year-old prodigy achieved this feat by claiming a total of 20 wickets in just six matches, surpassing the previous record of 19 held by Matt Henry.
In the opening One Day International (ODI) match between Pakistan and New Zealand at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Naseem Shah’s remarkable display of skills played a significant role in restricting the Kiwi team to a total of 288 runs. Even though the pitch was considered batting-friendly, Naseem managed to give away only 29 runs in his 10 overs, while also claiming two crucial wickets. This outstanding performance by Naseem Shah proved to be a game-changer for Pakistan.
