During her early years, she was a second-change bowler and later transformed herself into a frontline bowler leading the bowling attack and usually opening the bowling. She remained a vital cog of South African bowling attack for over a decade. She usually opened the bowling alongside Marizanne Kapp which was arguably one of the best fast-bowling combinations in women's international cricket.
In January 2021, Ismail became just the fourth bowler to take her 100th wicket in WT20Is. As of 2022, she holds the record for having taken the most number of wickets at a single venue in the history of WODIs with 24 scalps which she achieved at the Senwes Park, Potchefstroom.
On 3 May 2023, Ismail announced her retirement from international cricket. Provided by Wikipedia
