Shammar Joseph
West Indies defeated Australia by 8 runs in the second test match. After 27 years, West Indies defeated Australia on Australian soil. West Indies became the first team to win the day-night test in Australia. The responsibility of West Indies’ victory rested on Shamar Joseph. This player single-handedly led the West Indies team to a historic victory. The batsmen of the Australian team could not stand in front of Shamar Joseph and were out. He took a total of 7 wickets in the second innings against Australia. He emerged as the biggest match winner for the team. But now he is out of a big tournament.
This bowler was out of this tournament
Shamar Joseph suffered a toe injury during the Gabba Test against Australia. For this reason, he has been left out of the Dubai Capitals team in the ILT20 tournament. Mitchell Starc’s yorker ball hit his shoes. But the scan did not show any fracture. After this, on the fourth day of the match, he was seen groaning in pain. But he still presented an example of excellent bowling. He bowled at a speed of 150 km per hour. On the fourth day, he came on the field with a pain killer given by the team physio. He led West Indies to victory on Australian soil after 1997.
Strong performance in debut test series
After the Australia tour, he was going to play for Dubai Capitals in ILT20. But he will return home. Due to his excellent performance at the very beginning of his career, Shamar Joseph has no dearth of offers to play in T20 leagues around the world. Shamar Joseph dismissed Steve Smith on the very first ball of his Test debut and took five wickets in the first innings itself. He received the Player of the Series award for his excellent performance against Australia.
Joseph said a big thing
Shamar Joseph said that I will always be here to play Test cricket for West Indies. I’m not afraid to call it live. There will be times when T20 will come and Test cricket will come. But I will always be available to play for West Indies, no matter how much money I get. Recently Joseph was signed by Pakistan Premier League franchise Peshawar Zalmi.
