Starc on Akram: Australia’s fast bowler Mitchell Starc did wonders in the test match being played at Gabba on Thursday. He left behind former Pakistan fast bowler Wasim Akram and achieved the distinction of being the left arm fast bowler taking the most wickets in Test cricket. But after breaking the record, he praised the former Pakistani player, who won the hearts of the fans.
With Akram ahead of Harbhajan
Mitchell Starc broke the record made by Wasim Akram by dismissing Harry Brook. The Australian bowler has become the 15th highest wicket taker in Test cricket by taking 418 wickets. The special thing was that before dismissing Brook, he started the day by dismissing Ben Duckett on the very first ball. After this, he equalized Akram by dismissing Ollie Pope. Then after dismissing Brook, he went ahead of the Pakistani bowler. In this series, Starc defeated Will Jacques, Braydon Carse and Gus Atkinson and he also left behind former Indian spinner Harbhajan.
Akram still sits on top
After breaking the record of great bowler Wasim Akram, Mitchell Starc said that I will consider it, but for now I will just say that Wasim Akram is still at the top of the list of left arm fast bowlers. He has always performed better than me. After this he jokingly said that he still does not know how he can play such good cricket with the pink ball.
Wasim called Starc a super bowler
Meanwhile, Wasim Akram’s reaction also came out and he wrote a wonderful message congratulating Starc. He wrote on his X account that Super Stark! Proud of you and it was only a matter of time. Similarly, may you continue to do wonders in your career. After this lovely message, many veteran cricketers of the cricket world said that the beauty of the game is that when a junior player breaks the old record, the older player praises him fiercely. At the same time, he is very proud of that player after seeing his record being broken. At the same time, a fan wrote that respect is necessary along with competition in sports.
