Sorry to all cricket fans and bcci too': Mohammed Shami makes big statement after not making it to Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 squad


Mohammed Shami is yet to regain full fitness. He will look to make his comeback to the Test squad after proving his mettle in Ranji Trophy matches.









Highlights:

Mohammed Shami vows to make a comeback via domestic cricket.

Shami hasn't played competitive cricket since ODI World Cup 2023 final.

India's star pacer Mohammed Shami could not make it to the 18-member squad for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 as he is yet to regain full fitness post ankle surgery. Shami on October 26 took to Instagram and shared a video of his workout. He also posted a message for his fans and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). He aims to make a return to the team via Ranji Trophy route. 

Shami’s last appearance on the international stage was in ICC Men’s ODI World Cup 2023 against Australia. He revealed that he played in the World Cup despite injury. Since then he hasn’t played competitive cricket. Shami can make a comeback to red-ball cricket via Bengal’s Ranji Trophy matches against Karnatka or Madhya Pradesh next month.


Shami’s record in Australia

The 34-year-old has a decent record on Australian soil. He has 31 wickets from eight Tests at an average of 32.16. His best bowling figures in Australia are six wickets for 56 runs. 

In WTC history, he has 85 wickets from 24 Tests. His last Test appearance was in WTC 2023 final against Australia.

India’s rookie pacers for Australia tour

In Shami’s absence, the selectors have roped in pacer Harshit Rana and fast-bowling all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy. The two youngsters are yet to make their Test debut for India. Rana was recently named in the limited-overs squad but did not make his debut. The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) pacer was backed by head coach Gautam Gambhir.
