Dan Christian delivers the most expensive over in PSL history
Karachi Kings all-rounder Dan Christian delivered the most expensive over in PSL when his team met Peshawar Zalmi in the 13th match of Pakistan Super League 2021. The Aussie all-rounder began well when his bowling figures looked like 2-0-13-1 (wicket of Haider Ali) – but he ended up with figures of 3-0-45-1.
Christian bowled the 20th over of Zalmi innings when the scorecard read as 156-5 in 19 overs. All-rounder Amad Butt who just walked in to bat was on strike while Ravi Bopara set himself well at 58*(40) which helped Zalmi reach a respectable total.
Daniel Christian conceded 32 runs off his final over which went this way:
19.1 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – FOUR
19.2 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – WIDE
19.2 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – FOUR
19.3 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – FOUR
19.4 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – SIX
19.5 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – 2 RUNS
19.6 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – 5 WIDES
19.6 Dan Christian to Amad Butt – SIX
Peshwar Zalmi 188-5 in 20 overs!
Amad Butt (27 off 7 balls) was the star of the final over. Amad was selected to play for Pakistan in T20Is in 2016. He also toured England that year!
Christian was picked by Royal Challengers Bangalore at the auction event. The veteran all-rounder was a part of Big Bash League champions Sydney Sixers.
