Afghanistan's experienced player Mohammad Nabi has recorded a big record at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi. The 40 -year -old prophet has now become the third oldest player to take wickets in the history of the Champions Trophy. The special thing is that he has done this feat on his first ball. In this case, he has surpassed Howard Johnson of America and Rolland Lafebwear of Netherlands.

Third oldest player to take wicket

The Champions Trophy began on 19 February with the match of Pakistan-New Zealand. India and Bangladesh matched on 20 February. Whereas on 21 February, Afghanistan and South Africa in Group B continue at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.

In this match, the South African team won the toss and decided to bat first. Tony de Jorgy and Ryan Riclton first landed for batting. But Jeetger returned to the pavilion cheaply. The prophet implicated him in his trap.

South Africa had scored 28 runs in 5 overs. The sixth over was put by the prophet which was his first over. The prophet made a big feat on the first ball. Jalgeri played a shot towards mid -on off the prophet's first ball, but Ajmatullah Omrajai grabbed the ball and Janerji's innings ended at 11 runs in 11 balls.

Nabi is now the third oldest bowler (age 40 years 51 days) to take wickets in the Champions Trophy.

In this case, the number one is Tony Reid of America, who did this feat against New Zealand in 2004 at the age of 42 years 154 days. While at number two is former Sri Lankan player Sanath Jayasuriya (age 40 years 89 days). Nabi left Howard Johnson (age 40 years 28 days) and Rolland Lafebwear (39 years 221 days).
