Mohammed Shami could feature in the India vs England 3rd T20I. India cricket team’s batting coach Sitanshu Kotak has confirmed that the right-arm pacer doesn’t have any injury issues and is fit for selection in Rajkot. Shami hadn’t played in the first two matches despite being given an clear bill of health by the National Cricket Academy (NCA) medical staff.
It wasn’t made clear whether Shami was unfit or he had picked up an niggle after joining the team in Kolkata. For the 3rd T20I, it’s confirmed that Shami will be available for selection. “Mohammed Shami is fit,” Kotak told reporters at the Niranjan Shah Stadium.
However, there is no certainty that Shami will play. Kotak added that before playing the pacer, the management has to decide his workload. Shami will play in the ODIs that follow the T20I series and given his coming back from such a long international break, it’s imperative to keep a major focus on his fitness and avoid injury.
It’s up to head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Suryakumar Yadav whether they want to play him in Rajkot. “There is definitely a plan, looking at the coming matches, the ODIs. That is something the coach Gautam Gambhir and Suryakumar Yadav will take a call. Fitness, definitely not a problem. Depending on how they plan to build his load, it all depends on that,” he added.
Shami’s fitness “not a problem,” workload depends on Gambhir-Suryakumar, says India batting coach Inside Sport India.
