His notable performances during the PSL 10 included 4/31 against Peshawar Zalmi, including a double strike that dismissed Mohammad Haris and Max Bryant in consecutive deliveries, effectively ending Zalmi's chase on a batting-friendly surface.

In the 3rd and final match, which Pakistan won, Mirza was again the pick of the bowlers, with 3/19 in 4 overs, having dismantled Bangladesh's top order alongside Faheem Ashraf with the new ball, reducing them to 25 for 5.

In October 2025, in the second home T20I against South Africa, he was selected ahead of Shaheen Shah Afridi and made an immediate impact with the new ball, dismissing the top-order to leave South Africa struggling at 23 for 4. He ended with 3/14 in 4 overs and was declared Player of the Match.
