The pacer took a five-wicket haul in his first game in the ODI World Cup which was against New Zealand in Dharamsala. In the next game against England, Shami took four wickets as India defended a low total. Playing against Sri Lanka, Shami was at his absolute best with another five-wicket haul.
The next two games were lean for him as he managed just two wickets against South Africa and none against Netherlands. Come semi-final, Shami was on fire as he took seven wickets and propelled India in the final.
Shami's 7/57 in the semi-final against the Blackcaps is now the best bowling ever by an Indian in ODI World Cups and ODIs as well. During the tournament, Shami also became the fastest bowler to reach 50 wickets in the ODI World Cups, taking just 17 innings to reach the milestone.
Currently, the fast bowler, along with other seniors, has been given a break from the ongoing five-match T20I series against Australia.
