    "editor1": "The Rohit Sharma: Former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar said that India have become a ruthless side and this \"onslaught\" will continue for the rest of the World Cup after India handed Sri Lanka a historic 302 runs defeat on Thursday.<p>Akhtar looked pleased after Shami clinched his second five-for of the tournament and registered his best bowling figures (5\/18) against Sri Lanka.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The veteran right-arm pacer also went past Zaheer Khan and Javagal Srinath to become India's highest wicket-taker in World Cups. Shami now has 45 wickets in just 14 matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He has the best average (12.29) and best strike rate (15.75) among all bowlers who have taken more than 30 wickets in the history of World Cups.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"India is becoming a ruthless side from this point the onslaught cannot be stopped but my request to Indians is to start celebrating your fast bowlers because everyone was happy and there was a lot of noise on each delivery at the Wankhede Stadium,\" Akhtar said in a video posted on X.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>I am personally happy for Shami he has found his rhythm back he has claimed so many wickets and has got 45 World Cup wickets overall.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>While chasing a target of 358, Sri Lanka succumbed to a total of 55 in just 19.4 overs courtesy of Indian pacers who took 9 wickets. Mohammad Siraj finished with figures of 3\/15 while Bumrah, who sent back Pathum Nissanka in the first ball of Sri Lanka's chase, returned 1\/8.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"Siraj is running, Bumrah is lethal he is giving them comfort to both of them to bowl freely,\" said Akhtar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>This was the third time this year that Sri Lanka were bowled out under 100 in ODIs against India.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Rohit Sharma-led side becomes the first team to enter the semi-finals of World Cup 2023 and next they will face South Africa on Sunday at Eden Gardens<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
