NEW DELHI: India's Mohammed Shami earned high praise on Monday, with some describing his performance in the World Cup victory over New Zealand as reminiscent of a "Ferrari." This was another remarkable chapter in a career marked by a rollercoaster of professional and personal ups and downs.
Shami's exceptional bowling figures of 5-54 contributed significantly to India's fifth consecutive win, a four-wicket victory over New Zealand in Dharamsala, bringing them closer to the semi-finals. Despite sitting out the first four games of the tournament, the 33-year-old seized his opportunity to shine when all-rounder Hardik Pandya was sidelined due to injury.
