Saqlain Mushtaq Fastest bowler who took 100 wickets in ODI

Pakistan offspinner Saqlain Mushtaq the fastest man, who took his 100th wicket in his 53rd ODI, back in May 1997. This record still belongs to his name till date. The first off spinner who introduced "Doorsa". A great off spinner unluckily sidelined for some reasons.

Laurie Fishlock

Question: Who made his Test debut against India but hurt his hand on the tour of Australia that followed, didn't play another Test for ten years till he was recalled to face India, and then broke a finger on the tour of Australia that followed?

Answer: The answer to this rather complicated question is the Surrey and England batsman Laurie Fishlock, who played his first two Tests against India in 1936, then went to Australia with Gubby Allen's side that winter but suffered a hand injury. He didn't play another Test until he was recalled for the final match of England's first post-war series, against India in 1946 on his home ground, at The Oval. Fishlock was 39 by then, but had been having a fine season. He only scored 8 on his recall - but was still taken to Australia that winter. Early in the tour he badly broke a finger, and played only in the fifth Test, his last England appearance.
