By the way, if we talk about T20 cricket, then he has 20 wickets in 13 matches. He is playing first-class, List A matches but is yet to make his international debut. Although Ihsanullah may have claimed that he will break Umran Malik’s record, it will take a lot of time and hard work. Right now they are less than seven kilometers per hour. Also, the record of 157 km per hour made by Umran Malik is in international cricket and Ihsanullah’s record is in PSL i.e. a T20 league. First he has to make his international debut and then he has to bowl at more than 157. It remains to be seen whether he can get Umran behind or not, and if Umran bowls more pace during this period, Ihsanullah will have to chase even harder.
