Sh alias equivalent of PowerShell Set-Alias

Question

What would be the equivalent of this PowerShell code in Sh:

Set-Alias -Name PS7 -Value "C:\\Program Files\\PowerShell\\7\\pwsh.exe"
PS7 {
  $PSVersionTable
  1..5 | ForEach-Object -Parallel { Write-Host $_  } -ThrottleLimit 5
}

I tried the following:

alias ps="C:/Program Files/PowerShell/7/pwsh.exe"
ps {
  $PSVersionTable
  1..5 | ForEach-Object -Parallel { Write-Host $_  } -ThrottleLimit 5
}

But this doesn't seem to work. Is it even possible? I would like it to be inline, not in a script.

Supposing you are in WSL :

alias ps=\"$(wslpath -u 'D:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\pwsh.exe')\"
alias ps

 alias ps='"/mnt/d/Program Files/PowerShell/7/pwsh.exe"'

ps -nopro -c '& {
  $PSVersionTable
  1..5 | ForEach-Object -Parallel { Write-Host $_  } -ThrottleLimit 5
}'
