He made his Twenty20 International (T20I) debut for Pakistan against the West Indies on 26 March 2017.[15] He recorded the most economical figures for a bowler completing their four overs on debut in a T20I.[16] The following month, he was added to Pakistan's Test squad for their series against the West Indies.[17]
