INTERNATIONAL CRICKET CONTEST 2020 || My Favourite International Bowler ||
First of all I like to thank @mdshanto to organising this beautiful contest. Cricket is my favourite sport. I love to play cricket even my dream was to be cricketer but dream didn't come true. Today I participate this contest to write about my favourite international bowler.
Source
My favourite international bowler is Shoaib Akhtar. He is a former cricketer who played all formats of the game over a fourteen year career for Pakistan. Most of the people of his country called him as "Rawalpindi Express" but most of the time he is known for his world record. He is recognized as the fastest bowler in the history of cricket, delivering a world record top speed of 161.3 km/h (100.23 mph) in a pool match against England during the 2003 Cricket World Cup.
Shoaib's Personal life
Shoaib Akhtar was born 13 August 1975 in a small town in Morgah near Rawalpindi, Pakistan. His father, Mohammad Akhtar and his mother, Hameeda Awan. Shoaib has three brothers and a sister, Shoaib being the fourth after Shahid, Tahir and Obaid, his sister is Shumaila. He married Rubab Khan on 11 November 2014.
Shoaib's Bowling Style
There's 2 aspect which helps Shoaib Akhtar bowl as high as 160kph and one of the most fastest bowler of all time. The long Run Up which allows him to take a flight very similar to aircrafts take off on runway which gives him inertia. His action which supports bowling through the shoulder where he can throw the ball with all the momentum gained during the Long runup.
Career
He has a beautiful international career. But nothing is perfect. He has some dark side in his career. He proved those controversies wrong and came back in cricket.
