Pakistan's all-rounder Anwar Ali made his One-Day Cup debut in the English County season memorable.
Anwar, who played 22 ODIs for Pakistan, scored a magnificent century for Gloucestershire as they posted 278 runs on the scoreboard in their match against Northamptonshire.
Anwar, coming in to bat at ninth, scored 61 off 56 deliveries. His innings included two shots over the fence and three strokes to the boundary.
He also added 104 for the eighth wicket with Graeme van Buuren.
This is Anwar’s first-ever outing for any county team in England in any format of the game.
The 35-year-old all-rounder, who was once dubbed as the finest all-rounder in the country, has represented Pakistan in 22 ODIs and 16 T20Is. He last played for the country in 2016.
