Shami remains one of the best red-ball bowlers that India has ever produced. He is still the best at reverse-swinging the red ball, as he has done it consistently in recent times for the Bengal Cricket Team in the Ranji Trophy, and for the East Zone in the Duleep Trophy as well. His seam position is still the best across formats.
"Yeah, I was quite fortunate when I first started with the group for Shami to be a part of the team. You know, highly skillful player, a quality guy to have around in the group. And I was quite lucky when I joined for him to bring sort of the Indian language into the dressing room. He helped me quite a lot. So a sad day to see him go," Morkel said.
Mohammed Shami's Test career
He has 462 international wickets for the Men in Blue, as he still kept the doors open for the ODIs, despite being out of the side after the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 win. Shami will continue to play in white-ball cricket and IPL, as well as the domestic format, as he has been named in the SMAT team for Bengal.

In the same video, Morkel expressed his delight that Shami is still active in domestic cricket and continues to bowl a lot of overs in the Ranji Trophy, putting in the hard yards to probably make a comeback into the squad. Though he has not been seen, given his age and injury problems.
