‘Teams used to plan easily against us earlier, now they think otherwise’
Fast bowler Mohammad Shami says India's fast bowling contingent has not only forced teams around the world to take notice but also pushed the oppositions to think twice before preparing pitches to host the Indian team. Shami is one of the senior members of India's pace battery, which arguably can be called the world's best fast-bowling unit. Along with Jasprit Bumrah, Ishant Sharma, Mohammed Siraj, Navdeep Saini, and Umesh Yadav, Shami forms a lethal fast bowling pair that has made heads turn with their performances overseas. Ahead of the team's departure for the UK to play the World Test Championship final and a five-Test series against England, Shami threw light on the dominance shown by India's pacers.
"The best thing about our bowling unit is that we have 4-5 pacers who can constantly bowl at over 140-145 clicks. You can find 1-2, but to find 4-5 is tough, and we have that. We force the opposition to think about what wickets they want to offer us. I don't think we've had bowlers who could bowl at this pace earlier we never had 4-5 of them coming in units. Earlier, teams used to plan easily against us but today they are forced to think otherwise," Shami told India News.
