Few hours ago when Umar Gul got A.J. Redmond out on his ball (c Aamer b Umar: 27), he completed his 100 ODI wickets. He thus became Pakistans 16th and World’s 96th bowler to do so. Before we go into the the table of all Pakistan bowlers who have taken 100 ODI wickets, how about we take a look at a few yorkers from Umar Gul.

    With an unbeaten 73 in a record 10th wicket partnership of 103 against New Zealand, Pakistani tail-end batsman Mohammed Aamer’s performance with Saeed Ajmal was nothing short of awe-inspiring. After the rest of the Pakistani batting collapsed in chasing a paltry total of only 212 runs, Aamer and Ajmal put on a fierce fight, almost clinching the series.

    In his impeccable batting against NZ that featured three huge sixes and seven confident fours, 17-year-old Aamer put his senior team-mates to shame and showed the way for Pakistani youngsters to never give up—-in play or in real life. It is an absolute confidence booster for a nation that really needs it in this difficult hour.

    Well, Muhammad Aamir has created a new World Record for highest runs by any no. 10 batsman. A far important news thatn Umer Gul taking 100 wickets :).

    I think that is the highlight of the match.

    Aamir for Captain I say!!
