Lahore: Dadu-born Zahid Mehmood spun South Africa’s batters with his leg-spin in his debut T20I match here at Gaddafi Stadium.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 32-year-old Zahid in his first over took two wickets of Janneman Malan and skipper Heinrich Klassen on consecutive deliveries.<\/p>\n

He then removed Dwaine Pretorious in his third over, however, his last over was expensive where he gave away 17 runs and finished with figures of 3\/40.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, Twitterratis hailed his debut performance after he grinded himself for years in domestic cricket.<\/p>\n

Here are the best reactions<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Congratulations Zahid Mehmood, your hard work has given you the reward, your people of Dadu Sindh will be proud of you.#PAKvSA<\/a><\/p>\n
