Scotland quick breaks Rabada’s record with seven-wicket haul on debut

His second delivery breached the defences of Ayaan Khan, making it the first-ever instance of a bowler having picked up wickets off his first two balls in ODI cricket on debut. Two balls later, Cassell dismissed Khalid Kail.

Cassell’s sensational debut continued yielding wickets and he had a five-wicket haul with the dismissal of Mehran Khan in the 18th over. With this, he joined an exclusive list of 15 players, who had picked a five-for on Men’s ODI debut.

But it got even better when Cassell ran through the Oman tail to finish with 7/21, the best-ever bowling figures by an ODI bowler on international debut.
