Ali Khan: Spearhead and "Yorker Machine" of USA's pace attack

Ali Khan is a US national who was born and raised in Pakistan. He was spotted by Courtney Walsh for his ability to bowl devastating yorkers at high speeds and swing the ball both new and old. This led to his being drafted into the Caribbean Premier League in 2016. His breakout moment came when he dismissed Kumar Sangakkara with the very first delivery of his CPL debut for the Guyana Amazon Warriors. He has remained a regular in the CPL, and currently plays for the Trinbago Knight Riders franchise.
