County Championship 2022: Hasan Ali gets stumps flying with classy delivery to dismiss Jordan Cox

Hasan Ali picked up his maiden wicket in the County Championship and it went on to be a memorable one for the Pakistan seamer. The 27-year-old can be very destructive with the ball if he is at his best and he went through the defenses of Jordan Cox with a brilliant inswinging delivery that got the stumps flying. There is nothing better for a fast bowler to see the stumps getting uprooted and Ali brought out his famous celebration as well. In the last few series for Pakistan, Ali has been short of confidence and it has reflected in his performances for the national side. The bowling all-rounder was benched for the first Test against Australia, but was picked up for the second and the third Test, and he could pick up just two wickets in four innings which weren’t ideal numbers playing at home. He has been receiving criticism for his below-average performances in the limited-overs series as well despite skipper Babar Azam backing him to come good soon. Since making his debut in 2017, Ali has played 19 Tests, 58 ODIs, and 49 T20Is and his overall numbers have been really good across all three formats. However, he hasn’t been at his best in recent times, and to add to his worries, he had also dropped an important catch against Australia in the T20 World Cup 2021 semi-finals that contributed to Pakistan not making it to the finals. The wicket of Cox would have done him a world of good and he finished with 2 for 58 in his 22 overs in the first innings which included six maidens. Here’s the video of Hasan Ali dismissing Jordan Cox with a stunning delivery Hasan Ali's first County Championship wicket is a pretty special delivery. #CountyCricket2022pic.twitter.com/sq5aXwCgLp — Wisden (@WisdenCricket) April 16, 2022 In the ongoing County Championship division one game between Lancashire and Kent, Cox was batting on two with his team in trouble as four wickets had already gone. Cox left a delivery from Ali and it crashed into the stumps with some considerable deviation off the track to send the batter back. It was the first wicket for Ali on his Lancashire debut and he celebrated it in his trademark style.
