Pakistan superstar pacer Mohammad Irfan has bowled the most economical four-over spell in the history of T20 cricket while playing for Barbados Tridents in the Caribbean Premier League 2018.
The tallest cricketer of the world two wickets and conceded just one run from his four overs against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in Bridgetown on Saturday.

His record-breaking spell, however, was not enough as Tridents lost the match by six wickets.
Irfan bowled 23 dot balls before leaking a single off his 24th and final delivery, finishing with figures of 4-3-1-2. His victims included the swashbuckling hitters Chris Gayle and Evin Lewis.
Truly honored & humbled to make the world record for the most economical four over bowling figures in the history of T20 cricket: 4-3-1-2. Thanks @CPL & @BIMTridents. Also I can't say it enough but Caribbean people are pure love. 🙌🙏🏽 #SayaCorporation @TalhaAisham pic.twitter.com/ot0zdEKMKC
