Unfortunately I don’t see him getting to 200. His body seems to be failing him

Excellent strike rate of 53.9  while reaching 100 wickets.

[express bowling]

The most complete test match pacer I have seen from India.

 

Has wicket-taking ability, pace,bounce, ability to seam and reverse swing the ball.  Can sustain pace throughout the day. Is reasonably accurate.

 

If only he can maintain his fitness.

Congratulation to shami, one of my favorite bowlers in recent years, hope he stay fit and reach 300.

Zak was always overrated because of his ODI exploits. 

 

Was mediocre for most of his career and when he finally started doing late, he was old and unfit.

 

Even Ishant has done more than him in first 50-60 tests.

Shami is the best Indian Pacer by far.Needs to really work hard on his fitness.Except that

he's top class.

Yes I also think he was bit overrated in test matches, never convinced me as a strike bowler in longer format, injuries were the reason he was holding back himself in second half of his career and more focused on Odis, ishant was a very good bowler when he started, lovely action and pace caused problems with his incisive in dippers but then god knows what happened to him he started counting floors than focussing bon his bowling, messed up his seam position and was lost lol, but hope he finds his mojo back though.
