Shoaib Akhtar is hands-down one of the most decorated bowlers in the history of world cricket. Although he became famous worldwide for his exceptional pace, he had a rare combination of swagger and talent. At the peak of his career, no one could come closer to his stature in world cricket. It was back in the 2003 ICC Cricket World Cup in Pakistan’s match against England when Shoaib Akhtar delivered his career’s fastest delivery of 161.3 kmph (100.23 mph). Renowned by the moniker of ‘Rawalpindi Express’, Shoaib Akhtar is the fastest bowler in the history of world cricket.
Apart from his bowling expertise, Shoaib Akhtar was also renowned for his intimidating personality. The bowler used to scare opponents with his mere stare and was never bullied by anyone. Whether we talk about Australia or West Indies, Shoaib Akhtar never let anybody dominate him in terms of the mental game as he was always one step ahead in making mind moves. Even after so many years of his retirement, Pakistan can still not produce another bowler like him, which speaks volumes about the legacy he had left behind.
