Tabish Khan took his first wicket for Pakistan in his very first over in Test cricket, making an immediate impression on his debut within the 2nd Test vs Zimbabwe on Saturday.
Tabish Khan was given his Test debut earlier this week at 36 years of age. This got here after a home profession spanning 18 years, by which he took 598 FC wickets. His 599th FC wicket was a Test wicket.
598 is probably the most variety of wickets by any participant earlier than a Test debut for an Asian staff.

Tabish Khan can be the oldest participant to take a wicket in his first over in Test cricket within the final 70 years. In 1951, a 40-year-old GW Chubb had taken a wicket in his first over for South Africa towards England.
“We need to give credit to Tabish Khan as he has set an example for us with his never give up attitude. He has always worked towards representing Pakistan & has worked hard and kept on performing,” Azhar Ali had mentioned earlier than the 2nd Test.
