Hasan Ali’s Dominance Continues
Pakistan’s pace sensation Hasan Ali is making waves in England. The right-arm fast bowler took six wickets, including a hat-trick, for Warwickshire against Derbyshire in the T20 Blast league.
He gave away just 23 runs in 3.1 overs. Before this performance, Ali had taken five wickets against Bangladesh in a home T20 series. Now, he’s repeating his magic in England.
The hat-trick started with the wicket of Ross Whiteley, who was on 50. Then, Ali took out Alex Thomson and Ben Aitchison on consecutive deliveries to seal the deal. His late burst helped restrict Derbyshire to 141, giving Warwickshire a 58-run win.
Earlier, Warwickshire had made 199/6 in 20 overs. Tom Latham top-scored with 58, while Alex Davies and Moeen Ali chipped in with 49 and 33* respectively. For Derbyshire, Pat Brown took three wickets.
Derbyshire’s chase began poorly, with their fourth wicket falling at 28. Despite a fighting 50 from Ross Whiteley and 46 from captain Wayne Madsen, they fell short. Hasan Ali’s heroics proved too much for them to handle.
