In an interview, Indian batting legend Sunil Gavaskar, when asked who is his favourite Indian fast bowler, he took Shami’s name. “He reminds me of Malcolm Marshall, who still wakes me up from deep sleep,” Gavaskar said while commentating for ‘Star Sports’. Impressed with Shami’s skills, Gavaskar had earlier compared the fast bowler to a leopard. “When he is running in, when the spider cam actually takes it, it is such a sight. It is almost like a leopard going for a kill,” Gavaskar had said.
