Top 5 left-arm fast bowlers of all time

Australia v India - Second Test: Day 1

#2 Zaheer Khan

Australia v India - Third Test: Day 2
Zaheer Khan

Zaheer Khan is easily the best left-handed fast bowler India has ever produced. He was a complete fast bowler with amazing skills. He had one of the most fearsome yorkers. His ability to bring the ball into right-handers fetched him many wickets.

Later on, he developed a fearsome leg-cutter as well. He used to bowl at a fair clip during his prime. He had a big leap towards the end of his run-up, which used to help him in generating pace.

Zaheer Khan was a treat to watch. The way he used to set-up a batsman was like watching an artist at work. There are no prizes for guessing that his idol was Wasim Akram.

He took 311 wickets from 92 Test matches.
