All cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the start of the 5-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia, the first match of which will be played at the Perth Stadium on November 22. While Pat Cummins is handling the captaincy of the Australian team in this series, Jasprit Bumrah will be seen in the role of captain in the first Test match for Team India. Rohit Sharma, whose second child was born on November 15, decided to spend some more time with the family, and due to this, he could not join the squad for the Test match. The Indian team has arrived on this tour with many new faces. At the same time, experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami was also not selected for the team due to not being fully fit. However, Shami proved his fitness by returning to the Ranji Trophy last week, after which speculations of his return started. At the same time, Bumrah has also given a big update on the question asked about Shami in the press conference held a day before the Perth Test match.
If things go well, you can see them in Australia.
In response to a question about Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah said that he is a very important part of Team India and he has also returned to the field. I am hopeful that the management is constantly keeping an eye on Shami Bhai’s fitness. If everything goes well, you can see him playing on this tour as well. Let us tell you that Team India has to play the second Test match of this series on December 6, in which there will be a gap of about 10 days between the first and second Tests. While Rohit Sharma will have joined the team before the Adelaide Test match, it is expected that Shami can also become a part of the squad before the last four Test matches of this series.
Shami took 7 wickets in the Ranji Trophy.
Mohammad Shami, playing for the Bengal team, impressed everyone with his bowling in the last Ranji Trophy match against Madhya Pradesh in Indore in which he took a total of 7 wickets in the match. Apart from this, he also made an important contribution with the bat in the second innings and scored 37 runs. Bengal team won this match by 11 runs. Shami is now also a part of Bengal’s squad in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy starting from November 23.
