India pacer Mohammed Shami earned a historic feat in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 after his latest five-wicket haul in his side\u2019s four-wicket victory over New Zealand.<\/p>\n

Shami, who was on the bench for India\u2019s four opening matches during the World Cup, had come in as a cover for Hardik Pandya who had gotten injured. <\/p>\n

India\u2019s decision to play Shami at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala on Sunday paid off as he finished with a five-wicket haul \u2013 a landmark that has etched his name in the history books. He has now surpassed an elite list of Indian bowlers to become the first to score two five-wicket hauls in the 50-over World Cup.<\/p>\n

The six other Indian players who have clinched a fifer in past world cup tournaments include RP Singh, Yuvraj Singh, Ashish Nehra, Venkatesh Prasad, Kapil Dev and Kris Srikkanth.<\/p>\n

The pacer also went past legendary Indian bowler Anil Kumble in the list of most wickets for India in 50-over World Cups.<\/p>\n

Shami\u2019s first five-wicket haul in the Cricket World Cup was against England during the 2019 World Cup.<\/p>\n

Players usually take some time to settle in after sitting on the bench for a while. But this was not the case with Shami, who made his intentions crystal clear with his very first delivery on Sunday as he uprooted New Zealand batter Will Young\u2019s stumps in the ninth over of the Kiwi\u2019s innings.<\/p>\n

With Young\u2019s wicket, Shami bagged another milestone as he climbed to third place in India\u2019s all-time leading wicket-taker in\u00a0Cricket World Cup history, surpassing Kumble.<\/p>\n

Shami now has 36 wickets in the ODI World Cup following his latest five-wicket haul, while Kumble has 31 scalps. Javagal Srinath and Zaheer Khan, both of whom have claimed 44 wickets each, are India\u2019s leading wicket takers in the history of the coveted tournament.<\/p>\n

New Zealand\u2019s innings on Sunday were brought back on track following two early dismissals by Daryl Mitchell (131) and Rachin Ravindra (75), who had a challenging 159-run partnership.<\/p>\n

It was Shami who soon ended that stand by removing Ravindra in the 34th\u00a0over. The one-down batter mistimed a length delivery from Shami, resulting in a catch taken by Shubman Gill at long-on.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old fast bowler then cleaned up the Kiwi tail by dismissing Mitchell Santner and Matt Henry, and enforcing a run out of Lockie Ferguson on the final ball of New Zealand\u2019s innings. On the penultimate delivery, Shami finally ended Mitchell\u2019s incredible knock of 130 off 127 balls.<\/p>\n

India, the hosts of World Cup 2023, are now the only unbeaten side in the tournament. Rohit Sharma\u2019s team is at the top of the table with 10 points \u2013 two more than New Zealand who are now placed second.<\/p>\n

Team India has a week\u2019s gap before their next fixture against England on 29 October in Lucknow. New Zealand, meanwhile, will take on Australia on 28 October in Dharamshala.<\/p>\n
