Cricket News: Twitter reactions: Fans go mad as Nicholas Pooran takes 4 wickets in Multan ODI | Reactions as Pooran takes 4/48 against Pakistan
Nicholas Pooran rolled his arm over at the bowling crease. You read that right.
He dismissed Fakhar Zaman for his first international wicket. You read that right.
He then dismissed Imam-ul-Haq, Mohammad Haris and Mohammad Rizwan to finish with figures of 4/48 in his 10 overs in the third ODI against Pakistan in Multan. You read that right.
In one of the weirdest and remarkable spells of play in any cricket in 2022, Pooran, a wicket-keeper by trade, halted Pakistan’s momentum with his off-spin on a slow Multan pitch. The Pakistanis were not expecting the Windies captain to bowl, and it showed, as even their most experienced players had trouble dealing with a player who had only sent down six deliveries in his entire List A career before this match.
