A signed pair of cricket boots worn by Zaheer Khan during the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup, both boots signed in black marker pen, a pair of Nike ''Zoom Air'' in white & saffron, fitted spikes to soles Still with tufts of grass to the spikes and a caking of home soil to the soles, these boots offer a poignant souvenir of India's 2011 World Cup triumph. The boots have been personally donated for the auction by Mr Khan and are accompanied with a signed letter of authenticity from ''Zak''. The left-hand fast bowling of India's Zaheer Khan claimed 21 wickets during the World Cup winning campaign, including two in the final. This impressive total was the joint-best wicket taking statistic of the World Cup, Zaheer sharing the honours with Pakistan's Shahid Afridi. QUOTE UNQUOTE ''In 2003 I was only a couple of years into international cricket; the World cup journey itself was something special. That time my thing was to bowl quick. I wanted to be aggressive. It was a World Cup final; there were a lot of emotions. As soon as the national anthem finished, there was this rush of young blood. I wanted to do really well, wanted to just blast the Australians apart. This time I had learnt to keep a check on my emotions.'' Zaheer Khan
