Hassan Ali becomes leading wicket-taker in 2021
Pakistan right-arm seamer Hassan Ali surpasses the world bowlers and becomes the leading wicket-taker in 2021 so far.
The pacer with his impressive bowling skills has managed to rank top among the leading wicket-takers of all three formats of cricket in 2021.
Hassan Ali took 40 wickets in the last 15 innings while India Spinner Ravichandran Ashwin secured the second spot with his 34 wickets from 10 innings while Pakistan pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi became the third-highest wicket-taker who took 29 wickets from his last 15 innings.
Hassan Ali’s latest performance was his fiery fast bowling in the second test against Zimbabwe in which he managed to send 5 batsmen to the pavilion giving only 27 runs to the Zimbabwe team.
His excellent reverse swing bowling attack in the first test against Zimbabwe helped the Pakistan side to wrap up the Hirrare test with more than two day’s spare.
Earlier, Hassan Ali dedicated the Test achievement against Zimbabwe to her newborn daughter Heena.
“All praise is due to Allah almighty. Humble and grateful for all the messages and love. This one is for my little angel Helena Hassan Ali,” he tweeted.
Pakistan won the second test against Zimbabwe by an innings and 116 runs.
