Mohammed Shami Names Waqar Younis and Dale Steyn as His Favorite Bowlers

Mohammed Shami, India's pace spearhead, has revealed his admiration for two legendary bowlers: Waqar Younis and Dale Steyn. In a recent interview with Star Sports, Shami named these two greats as his "favourite bowlers of all-time."

Shami's admiration for Younis and Steyn stems from their exceptional skills and achievements. Younis, a Pakistani fast bowler, was renowned for his devastating swing bowling and ability to generate reverse swing. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest fast bowlers of all time, having taken 373 Test wickets and 416 ODI wickets.

Steyn, a South African fast bowler, is another legend of the game. Known for his express pace, pinpoint accuracy, and lethal inswingers, Steyn has taken 439 Test wickets and 196 ODI wickets. He is considered one of the most successful fast bowlers in the history of cricket.

Shami's own bowling prowess has earned him a place among India's top bowlers. Since his debut in 2013, he has established himself as a match-winner across all three formats. With 448 international wickets in 188 games, Shami is one of the most prolific pacers of the modern era.

His ability to deliver match-winning performances in big games has made him a fan favorite. In the 2015 and 2019 ODI World Cups, Shami played a crucial role in India's campaigns, taking key wickets and helping his team reach the semi-finals.

Shami's partnership with Jasprit Bumrah has formed a formidable pace duo for India. Together, they have led India's bowling attack to numerous victories. Shami's experience and skill, combined with Bumrah's pace and variations, make them one of the most dangerous bowling pairs in world cricket.
