Shamar Joseph, the Windies' fast-bowling sensation, faced a setback during the Gabba Test when Australian quick Mitchell Starc delivered a toe-crushing yorker.

In a remarkable turn of events, Joseph's unwavering spirit and outstanding bowling spell have solidified his place as a rising star in international cricket. His journey from injury scare to match-winning heroics is a testament to his talent and dedication to the sport.
