Sandeep Lamichhane, the Nepali spinner, etched his name in history by emerging as the quickest player to secure 100 wickets in one-day internationals (ODI). During the ACC Men’s Premier Cup match against Oman, the right-arm leg-break bowler clinched this remarkable feat by dismissing Adil Shafiq. Surpassing Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan, who achieved the milestone in 44 matches, Lamichhane reached this significant landmark in an astonishing 42 games.
His exceptional performance not only highlights his individual prowess but also underlines the growing prowess of Nepali cricket on the international stage. Lamichhane’s rapid ascent to the 100-wicket milestone underscores his exceptional skill and determination, serving as a testament to his unwavering dedication and hard work in the realm of ODI cricket.
