Saim Ayub, 23, who had also equalised an unwanted record – five ducks in a single tournament and nine in his overall career, topped the rankings with a remarkable or perhaps ironic leap.

His performance was severely criticised during the recent Asia Cup T20I in Dubai.

As a right-arm off-break bowler, he has now registered 16 wickets in twenty-over cricket.
