Men's ODI WC: Still Believe In Pitching It Up For Early Wickets, Says Shami After 7-57 Haul
ODI World Cup: While the world swears by variations in bowling to do the trick, India pacer Mohammed Shami still believes in pitching it up and getting wickets with the new ball as he came up with a brilliant 7-57 to help India beat New Zealand and storm into the final of the ICC men's ODI World Cup on Wednesday.
On a Wankhede pitch that was slow, dry and conducive for batting despite providing seam and swing early and sharp turn later, Shami provided India early breakthrough by claiming both the openers.
Player of the Match Shami, who came into the playing XI after Hardik Pandya got injured in India's fourth match against Bangladesh, then came back to break the 163-run partnership between Kane Williamson (69) and Daryl Mitchell (134) to claim two wickets in an over to help India fight back.
