There has been immense speculation surrounding Mohammed Shami's exclusion and continuous snub from the Indian team despite his convincing fitness and tremendous record in international cricket. He has a wicket tally the same as Bumrah, in fewer games than the World no. 1 pacer.
Mohammed Shami is a veteran pacer, but his injuries have kept him away from constant field action and a permanent spot in the Indian team. He has been in and out of the Indian team throughout his career, but for the 34-year-old pacer, a return has seemed distant since the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.
“Shami is great; he’s bowling exceptionally well. You saw in the 2-3 Ranji trophy matches where he's won Bengal on his own. I'm sure the selectors are watching. I'm sure there is communication between Shami and the selectors; I don't know." Ganguly clearly feels Shami is as fit as ever and should be in the team.
Mohammed Shami skipped the fourth round of the Ranji Trophy for Bengal
Mohammed Shami had a huge injury setback and was ruled out after the IPL campaign with the Sunrisers Hyderabad, where he had one of the most miserable seasons in the IPL of his career. Shami returned to action with the Duleep Trophy and later played the first three rounds of the Ranji Trophy.
However, he skipped the ongoing fourth round of the Ranji Trophy for the Bengal team and is expected to return for the next round.
India has its next World Cup campaign and WTC Final in 2027- Will Shami remain in the scheme of things?
Shami has more wickets than Zaheer Khan and equals Wasim Akram in World Cups, and is India's highest wicket-taker in ICC games. He is also the 5th highest wicket-taker in ODI World Cups, having played the fewest games among all others in the list.
Shami would be 36 by then, and to remain in the scheme of things, he needs to be drafted into the Indian squad and prove his prowess ahead of the ICC events.
