Wahab Riaz ruled out of The Hundred after spectacular debut

Karachi: Pakistan’s experienced pacer Wahab Riaz has been ruled out of The Hundred due to a back niggle.

The 36-year-old Wahab’s niggle was confirmed after an MRI. He will recover in 5-10 days approximately.

Wahab was part of the Trent Rockets and he made his debut against Welsh fires on August 6 where he bagged four wickets. He became only the fourth bowler to pick 4 or more wickets in an innings of The Hundred. He didn’t play against Oval Invincibles yesterday.
