Mumbai: After a long wait of 14 months, seasoned bowler Mohammed Shami is finally making a comeback to the Indian team. The 34-year-old will be joining the team for the five-match T20I series against England, which is set to begin on January 22 in Kolkata.
Shami's last international match was the 2023 ODI World Cup final against Australia, which took place on November 19 in Ahmedabad. Unfortunately, he had to take a break from playing due to an ankle injury that required surgery last year. This kept him out of the team for a significant period of time.
Despite his absence, Shami has been constantly working hard to recover and get back in shape. However, a swelling on his knee prevented him from joining the Indian team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. This put a lot of pressure on fellow bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who had to shoulder most of the bowling responsibilities.
In other news, it has been announced that Suryakumar Yadav will be leading the 15-member team for the T20I series. The team also includes talented players like Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, and Hardik Pandya. Rinku Singh, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakravarthy, Ravi Bishnoi, Washington Sundar, and Dhruv Jurel are also part of the team.
We are excited to see Shami back in action and hope he will make a significant contribution to the team's success. Let's cheer on our players as they take on England in this highly anticipated series. Go Team India!
