Fast bowler Mohammad Irfan, dubbed fondly as 'Burj ul Irfan' for his height, had the "dream start" to his Peshawar Zalmi debut when he struck on the very first ball, in the Pakistan Super League match against Multan Sultans on Tuesday.

The magical moment, which occurred in the first ball of the second over, was shared on Twitter by PSL.

The towering speedster threw a full length delivery which was hit by Chris Lynn towards first slip where it was caught to his right by Haider Ali.
