Bumrah, 28, who reclaimed his spot at the top of the rankings against England earlier in July, has gone down to the second place with 703 points, only one behind Boult. Bumrah claimed six wickets against England in the first ODI, and reclaimed the top spot. However, he suffered an injury in the second match, resulting in him not playing in the series-decider in Manchester on July 17. ,Also Read: Washington Sundar all set to make his County Championship debut for Lancashire,Boult and Bumrah are the only bowlers in the list who have accumulated more than 700 points. Shaheen Afridi (Pakistan), Josh Hazlewood (New Zealand) and Mujeeb Ur Rahman (Afghanistan) are the third, fourth and fifth ranked bowlers in ICC’s Men’s ODI Bowling Rankings. According to the new rankings, Bumrah is the only Indian to be inside the top 10 of the ODI rankings. Yuzvendra Chahal (16th), Bhuvneswar Kumar (24) and Mohamad Shami (25) are the other Indian bowlers who have featured in the list. Bumrah has been given a rest for the tour of West Indies, so it is unclear when the Indian ace will be able to surpass Boult in the ODI rankings. On the other hand, Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya, whose heroics helped India to register a victory over England in Manchester last week, have made gains in the latest rankings.

Also Read: IPL 2022: KL Rahul fined for slower over-rate against Mumbai Indians,As both pacers from Pakistan and India have been the reasons for batsmen’s worry, it is normal for pundits to draw a comparison between two fierce fast bowlers. ,On Sunday, former Pakistan pacer Aqib Javed compared two young stalwarts of modern-era cricket - Jasprit Bumrah of India and Pakistan sensation Shaheen Afridi. Also Read: ‘MS Dhoni is the greatest finisher; the face of IPL',Speaking to Paktv.tv, the 1992 World Cup-winning cricketer said that Bumrah's graph has been stable, but he is a far less aggressive bowler than his Pakistani counterpart Shaheen, who is now at the very beginning of his career. Javed said Shaheen produced more threatening performances across formats than the Indian. ,“The way Haris has bowled in the last few years, his average bowling speed is the fastest in the world. And the aggression he has, the way he runs, the batsman knows that the bowler is running towards him, but Bumrah's isn't that aggressive. And people enjoy these kind of bowlers who have such body language. Shaheen's graph is on the rise, while Bumrah is stable. He has less threatening performances than Shaheen, whether it's in T20s, ODIs or in Tests.

Bangladesh was forced to follow-on after being wrapped up for 87 in the first innings and was bowled out for 205. Also Read | Mitchell Starc's first-ball wicket is fodder for a new Ashes memory,With the light gradually fading, Bangladesh’s last-wicket pair of Taijul Islam and Ebadot Hossain resisted for 34 balls to raise a hope of salvaging the test. But Sajid broke the partnership, dismissing Taijul leg-before to help Pakistan win the game. Sajid claimed 4-86 to follow up his opening 8-42, the fourth-best total by a Pakastani bowler in an innings. “The team, the captain trusted me to do the job,” Sajid said. “The plan was to go for the win, and we tried to keep it tight and bowl on one spot. The entire team gets credit for their effort.”,Also Read | BCCI announces Rohit as ODI, T20I captain; name 18-man squad for SA Tests,Pakistan declared its first innings at 300-4 after only 63.2 overs were possible in the first three days because of rain and bad light. The third day was entirely washed out and only 6.2 overs were possible on Day 2. Resuming on 76-7, Bangladesh was quickly dismissed for 87 and Babar Azam forced the follow-on. Fast bowlers Shaheen Shah Afridi (2-31) and Hasan Ali (2-37) then got into act with the new ball, leaving Bangladesh 25-4. But Bangladesh raised a bit hope as Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das combined for 73 runs in 25 overs before Sajid rattled the stump of Liton for 45. Shakib Al Hasan joined Mushfiqur Rahim and added 49 runs before the latter was run out for 48 after trying for a risky single. Shakib and Mehidy Hasan then frustrated the Pakistani attack and Babar came to bowl, getting the breakthrough with his offspin as Mehidy went for sweep and was trapped leg-before. Also Read | 1st Test: Cummins notches fifer on captaincy debut as England fold for 147,A quick delivery from Sajid then broke the stump of Shakib. Shakib was his side’s top second-inning scorer with 63, becoming only the sixth player to complete a double of 4,000 runs and 200 wickets in tests. He's the fastest to achieve the feat, in 59 tests to eclipse the mark of England's Ian Botham of 69. “It was a disappointing performance, particularly our batting. There’s no excuse. We batted poorly,” Bangladesh captain Mominul Haque said. “The top four were not good. We lost seven wickets in one session on the fourth day. We are making the same mistakes again.

He top-scored for Pakistan in a losing cause. Pakistan team doctor Najeeb Somroo revealed these details in the post-match press conference after the side's ouster from the mega-event. Ahead of the semifinal contest, team batting consultant Matthew Hayden had said that the wicketkeeper-batter was hospitalised without mentioning that Rizwan was admitted to the ICU. Mohammad Rizwan developed a severe chest infection on 9th of November after which he was admitted to the hospital. He spent two nights in the ICU recovering. He made an incredible recovery and was deemed fit before the match, Somroo said. We can see his great determination and tenacity that shows his spirit of performing for the country. And we can see how he performed today. Captain Babar Azam said it was Rizwan who wanted to play in the semifinal. When I saw him, he was a little bit down, but when I asked him about his health he said, 'no, I will play'. Definitely he's a team man. The way he played today, it was exceptional. And the way he played today he showed that he's a team man. And I am very confident about his attitude and his performance. Rizwan struck 67 off 52 balls in Pakistan's total of 176/4 after they were asked to bat by Australia. The Australians chased down the target with one over to spare in a sensational fashion. The team doctor said that Rizwan's hospitalisation and admission to the ICU was kept a secret by the team management. The decision regarding and around his health was made by the whole team management. And this was regarding the morale of the whole team. And therefore we kept it within the team, he said. Before the semifinal match, Hayden had said that Rizwan was hospitalised for a night due to a lung condition. Mohammad Rizwan was in hospital a night ago suffering with some sort of lung condition. This is a warrior. He's been brilliant through the campaign and he has great courage, Hayden had said.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"25.2048","longitude":"55.2708","name":"Dubai - United Arab Emirates","city":"Dubai"},"keywords":"Mohammad Rizwan, T20 World Cup Pakistan, Rizwan T20 World Cup","originalPublishedOn":"2021-11-12T13:45:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"ESP4GyDq32O1","slug":"matthew-wades-dropped-catch-was-turning-point-babar-azam-post-pakistans-semi-final-loss-to-australia","slugV2":"sports/matthew-wades-dropped-catch-was-turning-point-babar-azam-post-pakistans-semi-final-loss-to-australia-283115/","title":"Wade's dropped catch was turning point: Babar on Pakistan's semis loss to Australia","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_9gboa2pM4.jpg","coverCaption":"Pakistan's captain Babar Azam plays a shot during the Cricket Twenty20 World Cup second semi-final match between Australia and Pakistan.
