Shoaib Bashir Becomes Youngest English Bowler To Pick Multiple Fifers Before Turning 21
Debutant Devdutt Padikkal: England young off-spinner Shoaib Bashir became the first English bowler to pick up multiple 5-wicket hauls in Test cricket before turning 21 during the day three of the fifth and final Test match against India at HPCA.
Bill Voce, James Anderson, and Rehan Ahmed are the only other Englishmen with 1 fifer before 21.
Day 3 of the Test match witnessed Bashis’s brilliance as he spun a web around the Indian batting lineup, claiming the prized wicket of Jasprit Bumrah (20) to secure his second five-wicket haul in Test cricket before the age of 21. Debutant Devdutt Padikkal (65) and Sarfaraz Khan (56) could not convert their fifties into tons as Bashir sent them back. Dhruv Jurel (15) were his other victims. Bashir finished with a figure of 46.1-5-173-5.
