Hasan has been enjoying an impressive run in this year’s PSL.
Joining Islamabad after two games, the Pakistan international has already grabbed eight wickets in his four appearances in the tournament so far.
However, he failed to make an impact in the Quetta vs Islamabad match, which saw Shadab Khan-led Islamabad clinching a two-wicket victory.
Meanwhile, Azam Khan has been in red-hot form and against Quetta, made a brisk 35 off 25 deliveries during the chase of 180 runs.
Following the win, Islamabad climbed to the second spot in the group table and are sitting behind Lahore Qalandars who have 10 points in 7 games,
On the other hand, Quetta Gladiators, after losing to Islamabad, came out victorious against Karachi Kings in their subsequent fixture. The Sarfaraz Ahmed-led side, powered by a blazing 86-run knock from Martin Guptill, beat Karachi by four wickets. With just two victories from eight games, Quetta are at the bottom of the pile.
