In October 2018, she was named in Pakistan's squad for the 2018 ICC Women's World Twenty20 tournament in the West Indies.[7][8] Following the conclusion of the tournament, she was named as the standout player in the team by the International Cricket Council (ICC).[9] In January 2020, she was named in Pakistan's squad for the 2020 ICC Women's T20 World Cup in Australia.[10] In Pakistan's match against England, she played in her 100th WT20I match.[11]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
