Beyond the numbers
313 wickets across 346 career matches
Imad Wasim has been one of the most active all-format T20 operators in the global franchise circuit, accumulating 313 wickets at a bowling average of 27.35. His career economy of 6.13 across more than 8,300 balls bowled speaks to consistent control across very different conditions.
PSL is his primary stage: 82 wickets in 104 matches
The Pakistan Super League accounts for his heaviest workload: 104 appearances, 82 wickets at 29.04, and a batting strike rate of 136.58. No other competition comes close for sheer volume of games, and his numbers there underpin his franchise value season after season.
Exceptional ODI batting average of 42.59
Across 53 ODIs, Wasim has scored 937 runs at an average of 42.59, the standout batting figure in his career breakdown. His ODI economy of 4.89 also makes him genuinely two-dimensional in the 50-over game, even if T20 has dominated his career in matches played.
National Stadium Karachi: averages 35 with the bat, 22 wickets
At the National Stadium in Karachi, Wasim averages 35 with the bat at a strike rate of 143.59 and has claimed 22 wickets in 15 matches. It is comfortably his most productive ground both as a batter and as a wicket-taker.
Strong numbers against England across 14 matches
In 14 appearances against England Cricket, Wasim has taken 22 wickets at an economy of 6.06 and scored 292 runs at a batting average of 36.50. Those are his most complete all-round head-to-head figures of any opponent in the data.
