Mohammed Shami, the legendary Indian fast bowler, has reached a massive milestone in his IPL career with the recent first-ball dismissal of Punjab Kings opener Priyansh Arya.
The Lucknow Super Giants are officially knocked out of the competition and have finished the season with just eight points at the end of the 14 matches in the IPL 2026 season. However, they have impressed with their bowling performances on several occasions, especially at the start of the season.
Mohammed Shami was included in the LSG playing XI after he was traded in from the Sunrisers Hyderabad following a poor season with the Sunrisers back in the 2025 season. His comeback following an injury promised a great season for the Indian great.
Mohammed Shami has been Rishabh Pant's most legendary new-ball bowler and was handed the ball in the first over of the game. Having taken the new ball, he has often picked wickets in the very first over.
Shami reached a new milestone in his IPL career during their last match against the Punjab Kings. Bowling to Priyansh Arya, the dangerous opening batter was dismissed on the very first ball of the spell.
Shami picked a wicket on his first ball for the sixth time in this season of the competition. He went past Jofra Archer's record, who had formerly picked five wickets on the first ball of his spell. He became the first with this unique record in IPL history.

— Johns. (@CricCrazyJohns) May 24, 2026Mohammed Shami's promising return in IPL 2026
Mohammed Shami returned to some promising form in this season of the competition. After being thrown out of the Indian team due to an injury, he was not available for a long time and was under rehabilitation.
Shami returned ahead of the domestic season in India and has featured across all three formats of the game for Bengal. He was on a serious wicket-taking spree across the season and was Bengal's most promising wicket-taker in the Ranji Trophy, the Vijay Hazare Trophy, and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
Shami, for his new franchise in the IPL, picked 12 wickets this season after having made 13 appearances in the season. His troubled economy in 2025 improved remarkably with his new franchise despite bowling majorly in the power play.
Mohammed Shami was denied a spot in India's ODI squad
Despite his stellar domestic season and remarkable fitness throughout the entire stretch of the domestic season in 2025-26 and the IPL season in 2026, Shami has not made a comeback to the Indian national side.
The Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee instead considered two of his LSG teammates, Mohsin Khan and Prince Yadav, for an India call-up, despite Mohsin being highly prone to injuries. They have been named in India's upcoming ODI series against Afghanistan, while Shami has once again failed to make the cut.
