Wahab Riaz becomes the first Pakistan bowler to concede 100 runs in an ODI
Pakistan have a rich history of great fast bowlers and among the current crop, Wahab Riaz, with his ability to bowl fast and accurately, was supposed to continue that trend. While he has done that on occasion, he has been on the receiving end of a hammering far too many times, especially in ODIs.
Coming into the game with the record of worst figures by a Pakistan bowler in ODI history, Wahab Riaz went one better but for all the wrong reasons as he conceded more than 100 runs in his 10 overs and became the first Pakistani bowler and the ninth overall to concede over 100 runs in an ODI.
In fact, his figures of 10-0-110-0 are the second-worst figures in the history of ODIs, with only Mick Lewis’ 113/0 being worse than the left-arm pacer’s figures. Thanks to his horrible effort with the ball, he now features thrice in the list of 5 most expensive spells by Pakistan bowlers in ODIs.
