In October 2017, during the 2017–18 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy match between United Bank Limited and Lahore Whites, he took nine wickets for 25 runs in the second innings of the game. These were the second-best figures in first-class cricket in Pakistan.

On 3 June 2018, he was selected to play for the Toronto Nationals in the players' draft for the inaugural edition of the Global T20 Canada tournament. In March 2019, he was named in Federal Areas' squad for the 2019 Pakistan Cup.
