One Indian bowler each team should release before IPL 2019

#6 Mohammad Shami - Delhi Daredevils

Mohammed Shami has been India’s leading bowler in Test cricket. The fast bowler from Bengal has the uncanny knack of picking up wickets. But the India star tends to struggle in the shortest format of the game. Shami has picked up just 21 wickets in all of the IPL seasons. In trying to pick up wickets with the new ball, Shami sprays it around a bit too much and is quite expensive. At the death as well, Shami lacks control with his yorkers.

Last year, Shami played just 4 matches for the Delhi Daredevils and picked up 3 wickets at an economy of more than 10 runs per over. He was subsequently dropped in favour of the younger crop like Avesh Khan and Harshal Patel. Delhi should get rid of him before the upcoming auctions and should instead try to sign an experienced bowler at the auctions who can provide them with the control at the top and in the death overs.
