Akhtar praised India’s increasing ruthlessness and asked Indian cricket fans to appreciate its fast bowlers after being impressed by the country’s three pacers. He was especially happy for Shami, who has been getting wickets consistently and has found his formagain.
In addition, Akhtar praised Bumrah’s devastating bowling and Siraj’s tireless efforts, both of which enhanced their team;s performance.
India is turning into a more vicious team, and there is no stopping this onslaught. However, I would like Indians to start appreciating their fast bowlers, as they made a lot of noise and everyone seemed thrilled with each delivery at the Wankhede Stadium, Shoaib Akhtar said.
“I am personally happy for Shami because he has found his rhythm again. He has claimed so many wickets and has surpassed, Siraj is running and Bumrah is lethal. He is giving them both comfort to bowl freely”. Shoaib Akhtar said.
