One Day Internationals: Bowling
Player Profile:Like Waqar Younis a decade before, Zaheer Khan Yorked his way into the collective consciousness of the cricket world: his performances at the ICC Knockout Trophy in Kenya in September 2000 announced the arrival of an all-too-rare star in the Indian fast-bowling firmament. He might just as easily have come from the Pakistani pace stable: well-built, quick and unfazed by a batsman's reputation, Zaheer could move the ball both ways off the wicket and swing the old ball at some pace. After initially struggling to establish himself as a new-ball bowler, he came of age on the 2002 tour of the West Indies, when he led the line with great heart. His subsequent displays in England and New Zealand - not to mention some eye-catching moments at the World Cup - established him at the forefront of India's new pace generation, but a hamstring injury saw him relegated to bit-part performer as Indian cricket scripted some of its finest moments away in Australia and Pakistan. Since then, his pace has dropped and his attitude questioned, as a new breed of pace bowlers pushed him aside to move to the front of the queue. He came back in the side for the South African tour after a better display in County cricket for Worcestershire and since then has been the main blower in ODIs. Going into the World Cup he would be a key player for India along with Ajit Agarkar & Munaf Patel in the Pace department. World Cup Stats:Batting
Bowling
Expectation from Zaheer Khan in cricket World Cup 2007:After a good show on seamer friendly pitches of South Africa and some decent performances against West Indies & his best bowling performance against Sri Lanka a lot is expected of him in World cup. He had the tendency of getting excited at times and give way too many runs. Also had a attitude problem hopefully after the sidelining he has learnt a lesson and will help us to the glory of cricket world cup.
