Rizwan’s 81 in his debut has shattered the record of his counterpart Umar, who scored 76 runs on his Vitality Blast debut in 2015.
Following Rizwan’s brilliance with the bat, Sussex managed to post a commendable total of 150/6 in the allotted 20 overs as the rest of the batters had a forgetful evening with the bat. Glamorgan, in the end, comfortably sealed the victory as they chased down the target with seven balls and as many wickets to spare.
