Good News!
Star pakistani fast bowler Waqar Younis has just achieved a historic double of having 300 wickets in both one days and test matches.He has achieved his 300th test wicket in his 65th test match.And he is only the 2nd bowler in entire cricket history after Wasim Akram to have achieved this milestone.He reached this when he took the last wicket of srilankan innings in the on going pak Vs.SL test match.Another milestone that would probably be achieved during this test match is that Wasim Akram himself will reach the historic double of having 400 test wickets in both one days and test matches.He will be the 1st in cricket history to have achieved this.He was also the first to achieve the double of 300 wickets,(now joined by Waqar Younis).
Wasim has reached from 398 wickets to 399 during the srilankan innings.He already has 427 wickets in one days.This Guys lead me to ask,Has there been any greater bowler in the current decade than these two???
These records of double 300(let alone double 400) would not be broken/achieved by any other bowler from any country for a decade yet,and in my opinion 2 decades!!
So what do you think?
Has there been a greater bowler than these two in the current decade?
