Hasan Ali stuns Dhaka Dynamites with a five-for in Bangladesh Premier League

Pakistan pacer Hasan Ali announced his arrival in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) on Monday with a five-for ─ all bowled ─ for just 20 runs.

Ali took five wickets in 3.3 overs putting his side, the Comilla Victorians, in a commanding position against the Dhaka Dynamites.

The number one ranked One Day International (ODI) bowler became only the second after Bangladesh's Rubel Hossain to have bowled five batsmen out in a single Twenty20 game.

Ali, who was picked by the Peshawar Zalmi in the emerging category for the Pakistan Super League's (PSL) opening season, is also the highest ODI wicket-taker this year.

He rose to prominence in the international circuit as part of the side that won Pakistan its first Champions Trophy title.
