Despite Mohammed Shami has not played the first four matches at the ICC World Cup 2019 , he has made the best out of his career and became the second bowler after Chetan Sharma from Inia to pick up a World Cup hat-trick.
Defending 16 runs in the final over, Mohammed Shami, picked up 3 wickets in successive deliveries, to restrict Afghanistan to 213 in a low-scoring thriller at the Rose Bowl.
The plan was simple. To bowl a yorker and even Mahi bhai suggested that. He said, ‘Don’t change anything now as you have a great chance of getting a hat-trick. It’s a rare opportunity and you need to do the same thing. So I did what exactly I was told,” Mohammed Shami asserted in post match conference.
Getting a chance in the playing XI is a bit of luck. I was ready that whenever I get a chance, I will have to utilize it. As far as hat-trick is concerned, it is a rarity at least in the World Cup. I am happy,” Shami further added.
India has a win of 4 out of 5 matches is thrid on the 10 team points table. The champions will be acing West Indies on Thursday
