3 Indian fast bowlers who were the fastest to hundred wickets in ODIs

#2 Irfan Pathan (59 games)

Irfan Pathan could not live up to the hype he generated early on in his career

Another left-handed fast bowler from India who started his international career with a bang. It won't be an exaggeration to say that he flattered to deceive as he failed to live up to the euphoria he generated early on in his career. Pathan was a handy batsman too.

Early on in his career, Pathan had a superb inswinging delivery to right-handers which got him many scalps, but, somehow he lost this ability to swing the ball mid-way through his career and eventually fell out of favour from Indian cricket. Pathan is the 2nd fastest bowler from India to reach 100 wickets in ODI cricket, he reached this milestone in a meager 59 games.

#1 Mohammed Shami (56 games)

Shami has a superb bouncer in his

armoury

Mohammed Shami has been an enigma, he can be lethal on one day and ordinary on another day. He has been a blow hot-blow cold sort of bowler, especially in ODI cricket.

He has the ability to pick up wickets which is evident from the fact that he is the fastest Indian bowler to reach 100 ODI wickets, but, he has the tendency to leak a lot of runs especially during the slog overs.

Lately, Shami has been in tremendous form in ODI cricket which has brought him into the reckoning for a slot in the 2019 World Cup squad. Shami took just 56 games to reach 100 ODI wickets.
