MS Dhoni vs Waqar Younis

Ad

The yorker is the most devastating weapon for any bowler and if one has a deadly yorker, it is very difficult for any batsman to stamp his authority. Just ask Waqar Younis or Lasith Malinga, two bowlers with accurate and deadly yorkers.

Though Malinga has become ineffective at the fag end of his career, Waqar was devastating until his retirement. He troubled a lot of good batsmen of his generation with his yorkers and shattered their wickets. It was a nightmare for batsmen to face Waqar in the last few overs of an ODI as the Pakistani was rarely taken for runs.

Former Indian skipper MS Dhoni has made a career out of finishing ODI matches by taking them right until the end. Though he has not faced Waqar or anyone like him in his career, he completely dominated all the bowlers he faced at his peak.

Won't it be interesting to see a bowler who hardly conceded runs in the death overs against a batsman who likes to take the matches till the end and win it for his team?
