New Delhi. Indian cricket team’s experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami will command India’s bowling attack in the Champions Trophy. Due to Jasprit Bumrah’s injury, now there is a big responsibility on his shoulders. Fans will be shocked to know that questions are being raised again about Shami’s fitness. Shami, who made it to the T20 team against England, looked uncomfortable during practice in Kolkata. He was seen with a bandage on his leg and was limping to the dressing room.

34-year-old Mohammed Shami was the highest wicket-taker in the 2023 ODI World Cup. This stalwart, who played for India for the last time on 19 November 2023, is getting a chance to make a comeback in the T20 series against England. He missed the entire 2024 season due to an ankle injury. After a successful comeback in domestic cricket for Bengal in November last year, the selectors have now decided to field Shami before the Champions Trophy against England.

Mohammed Shami participated in India’s first practice session at Eden Gardens on Sunday 19 January. According to PTI report, he raised expectations and bowled with full force for more than an hour. But what happened after this is worrying. It is being told that the star bowler was feeling a little uncomfortable after bowling and returned limping towards the dressing room. However, he soon returned to the field and interacted with his old Bengal teammates. Shami was wearing a heavy bandage on his left knee.
