Mohammed Shami last featured for India in the 50-over format back in the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. The veteran pacer is the highest wicket-taker for India in the history of the ICC tournaments, as well as the 50-over ODI World Cup.
In a recent candid statement on a YouTube channel, the 35-year-old veteran Indian pacer stressed that although a selection decision is not in his control, as it lies with the selectors, captain, and coach, he reiterated that he is match-fit and ready to don the national colours.
The veteran pacer has hence dismissed rumours of him being unfit for the upcoming contest. Mohammed Shami has not been picked for the upcoming white-ball tour to Australia. Addressing such concerns, Shami said that his recent domestic outings included a Duleep Trophy appearance where he bowled 35 overs, which proves his physical rhythm.
Mohammed Shami's statement contradicts Ajit Agarkar's statement
Mohammed Shami's statement was in contrast to what the Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar said when he was asked about the veteran pacer's absence from India's white-ball squads. Agarkar said that there were no such updates, as he highlighted that Mohammed Shami needs more match practice before a comeback.
Despite being one of the most experienced as well as one of the finest under Australian conditions due to his ability to bowl bouncers at sheer pace, Shami was not picked for the highly anticipated Australia series.
