Is Mohammed Shami India’s greatest bowler in ICC events? Stats say so

Mohammed Shami has broken a superb record during the ongoing India vs Bangladesh match at the ICC Champions Trophy. Taking the onus of bowling with the new ball and spearheading the Indian attack in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, Shami started the match in an incredible fashion. He first induced an inner edge of Soumya Sarkar’s bat before sending back Mehidy Hasan with an outside edge. With the two wickets, Shami has become India’s leading wicket-taker in white-ball ICC events.

Mohammed Shami: Man for all ICC events

Mohammed Shami is undeniably a highly talented pacer. His seam position is undoubtedly best in the game – its a bowler’s paradise. At the ODI World Cup 2023, he was completely unplayable. Taking wickets for fun, Shami was in a breathtaking form, taking 24 wickets at an incredible bowling strike rate of 12.00. Following that, he missed the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 but has now returned to the ICC event with the Champions Trophy. Now, Shami has taken a total of 71 wickets at an mind-boggling bowling average of under 16.
