Even though Team India has a formidable bowling attack that features some of the finest bowlers in competitive cricket across formats, PAK cricketer Ahmed Shehzad is convinced that Rohit Sharma and Co. don’t have a bowler who has the potential to unnerve premier batters.

Speaking to Nadir Ali on his podcast, Ahmed Shehzad said –

“No disrespect to them. But there hasn’t been any threatening bowler from India that the opposition batter is scared to play him. They have good bowlers like Bumrah, Jadeja and Ashwin, but there has not been a dangerous bowler as such. Their batters are dangerous.”

While making a bold claim against the Men In Blue, Ahmed recalled the bowling exploits of legendary fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar. Known for his menacing pace and deadly bouncers, Akhtar also known as Rawalpindi Express used to terrorise world-class batters during his prime.

Ahmed further said –

“I can’t recollect any other bowler apart from Shoaib Akhtar. When I was new to the team, he was already The Shoaib Akhtar. He had 2 great qualities. First, he never bowled no-balls in the nets. Second, he never bowled unnecessary bouncers to the batters in the nets. He knew the batter would get hurt.”
