Indian team pacer Mohammed Shami has stepped on the ground again as he started bowling in the nets session at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru.
Mohammed Shami last played competitive cricket in the 2023 ODI World Cup, where he finished as the top wicket-taker with 24 scalps.
Shami’s update on his bowling hints at his inclusion in the upcoming India vs. Bangladesh series. Recently, in March, BCCI secretary Jay Shah said, “Shami’s return is likely for the home series against Bangladesh.” The team is set to play two Test matches in India.
The fast bowler successfully underwent surgery on February 26th, 2024, for a right heel problem. Shami has missed the South Africa vs. India Test series in December, the India vs. England Test series from January to March, the IPL 2024 season, and the T20 World Cup.
