Pakistan's left-arm fast bowler, who took 414 Test wickets and 502 ODI wickets -- the most by any fast bowler in ODI history -- was the first bowler to master reverse swing (making an old ball swing in the opposite direction to conventional swing) and became its greatest exponent. His ability to swing the ball both ways at express pace made him virtually unplayable in the final overs of an innings, and he is the only bowler to take four consecutive wickets in four balls in two separate ODIs.
