Mohammed Shami is the rarest talent in Indian cricket. A fearsome right-arm fast bowler, Shami is every batsman’s nightmare. His phenomenal performance in the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 has cemented his position as one of, if not the best bowler of the tournament.
He was included in the playing line-up of the Indian team in the match against New Zealand, where the pacer took 5 wickets for the then unbeaten Kiwis. In the next match against England he took 4 wickets and in the recent match against Sri Lanka he took 5 wickets for just 18 runs. Taking 14 wickets in just 3 matches is nothing short of impressive and as expected, this magnificent bowler broke multiple records with his five hauls.
Let’s take a look at the records and achievements of the Indian cricketer.
