Mohammed Shami took five wickets as India clinched victory in the Johannesburg Test against South Africa.<\/a> Former Indian coaches Ravi Shastri and Bharat Arun recently shared a behind-the-scenes story about Shami, revealing how his intense anger fueled one of his best performances against the South African team in Johannesburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In India\u2019s 2018 Test series in South Africa, Shami played a pivotal role in the final match, helping India secure a 63-run win within just four days. Although India had lost the first two Tests, they bounced back strongly, with Mohammed Shami\u2019s<\/a> five-wicket haul playing a key part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the fourth day, South Africa looked set to win, needing 223 runs with eight wickets in hand. By lunchtime, the target had dropped to 171 runs with seven wickets remaining, giving the hosts a better chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Shastri walked by during the lunch break, he noticed Shami\u2019s plate loaded with biryani. He recalled, \u201cIt was Johannesburg, final day. The game was heated. South Africa needed 240 runs with eight wickets left. At lunch, I saw Shami\u2019s plate \u2014 he had a huge serving of biryani.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arun then explained how Shastri teased Mohammed Shami about his appetite. \u201cRavi walked over and asked him, \u2018Tera bhook idhar theek ho gaya kya?\u2019 (Is your hunger satisfied after eating the biryani?). Mohammed Shami, clearly furious, rejected the food completely. Shastri told me to leave him alone and focus on the wickets. \u2018Le le plate. Nahi chahiye biryani, bhaad mein gaya biryani,\u2019 (Take the plate. I don\u2019t want the biryani. Let it go to hell),\u201d Shastri added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fuelled by his anger, Shami tore through the Proteas\u2019 tail, swiftly dismissing their last seven batsmen.<\/a> His brilliant spell triggered a dramatic collapse, with South Africa tumbling from 131 for 3 to 177 all out in no time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After India\u2019s win, Arun playfully offered Shami the same plate of biryani, to which the bowler smiled and said, \u201cHumko hamesha gussa karao phir theek ho jaate hai\u201d (Keep making me angry, and I get better). \u201cTypical Shami,\u201d Shastri remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
