Mohammed Shami achieves new feat in first Test against Bangladesh

Mohammed Shami has had a phenomenal year so far. It all started in the World Cup where he bowled some wonderful spells and finished as India's second-leading wicket-taker in the tournament. His form only got better after that and he has been doing really well in the ongoing home season for Team India. Shami was really impressive in the first Test against Bangladesh at the Holkar Stadium in Indore but, he now has yet another record in his name.

Shami achieves a new feat

In the first Test against Bangladesh where India had registered a comprehensive win, Mohammed Shami once again proved why he is the best bowler in the second innings as he has now become the most successful bowler in the last two years when it comes to bowling in the second innings. The star pacer now has 51 scalps from 20 innings. Only the likes of Australia's Pat Cummins (48) and Nathan Lyon (47) are near Shami. Mohammed Shami took seven wickets in the first Test match. He finished with figures of 3/27 in the first innings at an economy rate of 2.08 including five maidens whereas, in the second innings, he was yet again the pick of the Indian bowlers with figures of 4/31 at an economy rate of 1.94 including seven maidens.

India register a comprehensive win

India declared their innings on the morning of Day 3 at 493/6 with a mammoth lead of 343 runs. The bowlers once again struck early for the hosts as Bangladesh lost their top order pretty early. Only Mushfiqur Rahim, Liton Das, Mehidy Hasan managed to show some resistance for the visitors. Rahim top-scored for Bangladesh with a 150-ball 64 and once he was dismissed, it was only a matter of time before the Mominul Haque-led side were bundled out for 213 as India won by an innings and 130 runs. By the virtue of this win, Team India continues to remain undisputed in the ICC World Test Championship points table with 300 points in six games that they have played so far and winning on all occasions.
