At the ongoing ACC U19 Asia Cup, tall pacer Mohammad Zeeshan became the second Pakistan junior speed bowler to grab six wickets in an under-19 encounter against another nation. He was overjoyed to have reached the historic mark.
After Shaheen Shah Afridi, who scored six out of thirteen while playing for Pakistan’s junior team, Zeeshan is the second Pakistani to accomplish the feat.
“I am delighted to know that I am the second Pakistan bowler after Shaheen Shah to have achieved the landmark. I am more excited to have helped the team win the Junior Asia Cup match against Nepal,” he said.
The pacer stated that he made an effort to bowl with solid length and line.
“That helped me a lot. I kept the ball at a good length and made the batsmen play each delivery. That ultimately fetched me wickets. I am thankful to Allah Almighty for helping our team win the match with ease.”
At the ICC Academy in Dubai, Pakistan’s Under-19 cricket team defeated Nepal by seven wickets in their inaugural ACC U19 Asia Cup encounter.
