Sydney: Aamir Jamal scored 50 runs and 6 wickets against Australia in the final Test series match.
In a stunning display of brilliance, Pakistani fast bowler Aamir Jamal carved his name into the annals of cricket history during the final Test of the three-match series against Australia.
Jamal’s outstanding performance in the Sydney Test earned him a remarkable distinction, marking the first instance in Pakistan’s cricketing history where a player has notched more than 50 runs and taken 6 wickets in a single Test match innings against Australia.
The dynamic player showcased his prowess by delivering an innings of 82 runs during Pakistan’s first innings, followed by an impressive feat of dismissing 6 Australian players in their initial innings.
While Jamal’s outstanding achievement is a historic milestone, the Pakistani team faced a challenging start in their second innings during the Sydney Test.
Before this extraordinary feat, the legendary Wasim Akram had showcased a similar display against Australia in 1990, scoring 52 and 123 runs across two innings while securing five wickets in one inning and one in the other.
Despite Jamal’s remarkable performance, Australia holds a commanding lead in the three-match Test series, claiming victory in two matches out of three.
