Shaheen Shah Afridi is considered one of the best pacers of the present time. Bangladesh’s batting line-up was destroyed by his fire bowling the previous day as well.
This time he also got the recognition of great continuous performance. This Pakistani pacer came to the top of the list of bowlers in the ODI version of the ICC rankings.
This is Shaheen’s best ranking in five years of cricket career. This pacer topped the list of bowlers with 673 rating points. Interestingly, this is Shaheen’s best position in the ranking but not the best rating point. Earlier in June last year, he reached the fourth position with 688 rating points.
Shaheen is bowling in a great rhythm in this World Cup. He has already taken 16 wickets by getting wickets in each of the seven matches. Meanwhile, Fifer also got against Australia. Auji tops the list of the best bowlers of the World Cup with leg-spinner Adam Zamper.
Shaheen made another feat the previous day. He became the third fastest bowler to take 100 wickets in ODI cricket by dismissing Tanjid Hasan Tamim. He made this feat in 51 matches. Which is the fastest among pacers. Also the fastest among Pakistani cricketers.
