These are the Pakistan bowlers, who were taken to the cleaners by opposing batters during some particular ODI matches
1. Wahab Riaz – 110 runs
During an ODI against England in Nottingham back in 2016, Riaz ended up getting dismantled and was hit around the stadium throughout his spell. The left-arm pacer ended up leaking a massive number of runs.
2. Hasan Ali – 100 runs
The Pakistan pacer was punished by the Australian batters throughout his spell in Adelaide back in 2017. Hasan was smashed all around the stadium and ended up giving away a huge number of runs.
3. Wahab Riaz – 93 runs
The former Pakistan pacer ended up leaking a lot of runs during the Men in Green’s one-day clash against South Africa in Johannesburg back in 2013. Wahab proved to be very costly as he was punished by the South African batters.
4. Bilawal Bhatti – 93 runs
The Pakistan pacer was taken to the cleaners during the Men in Green’s ODI clash against New Zealand back in 2015. Unfortunately for Bhatti, he never got another chance in the format again.
5. Naved-ul-Hasan – 92 runs
The former Pakistan pacer ended up giving away more than 90 runs in just 8 overs back in 2006 during the Men in Green’s ODI clash against South Africa. At that time, this became the costliest ODI spell ever bowled by a Pakistan bowler.
6. Shaheen Afridi – 90 runs
During Pakistan’s 2023 ODI World Cup clash against New Zealand, Shaheen ended up giving away a ton of runs. The left-arm pacer’s spell stands as the costliest spell ever bowled by a Pakistan bowler in the tournament’s history.
7. Shaheen Afridi – 88 runs
The left-arm pacer was smashed all around the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore during Pakistan’s ODI clash against New Zealand. Shaheen may have taken 3 wickets, but also ended up giving away tons of runs in his spell.
