Mohammed Shami has become the fastest bowler to pick 50 wickets in his 17th ICC Cricket World Cup game, with a whopping seven wickets in the semi final against New Zealand in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. He overtook Mitchell Starc, who picked up his 50th wicket in his 19th World Cup innings against India on October 8, 2023.
For his milestone, Mohammed Shami dismissed Kane Williamson (69 off 73 balls) in the 33rd over to break the Kiwi skipper's partnership with Daryl Mitchell, who reached his ton in the same over. Two balls later, he dismissed Tom Latham for a duck to pick up his fourth wicket in the match
