Mohammad Shami, the seasoned Indian fast bowler, has made a remarkable return to the Ranji Trophy after a year-long injury hiatus. His recent performance has caught the attention of the national selectors, and there is speculation that he could be included in the Indian squad for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia.

Mohammad Shami’s Impressive Comeback

Shami played his first Ranji Trophy match since 2018, representing Bengal against Madhya Pradesh. In this match, he showcased his skill and experience by taking four wickets for 54 runs in 19 overs. His performance was particularly notable as he bowled multiple spells across 57 overs, demonstrating his fitness and endurance.

Shami’s return to competitive cricket has been closely monitored by the national selectors and medical team. His ability to bowl long spells and maintain his pace and accuracy is crucial for his potential inclusion in the Test squad. The selectors are looking for a bowler who can provide consistent performance and handle the workload of a Test match.

If Shami is included in the squad, his experience and ability to take wickets at crucial moments could be a game-changer for India. His past performances in Australia, including his pivotal role in the historic 2-1 Test series victory in 2018-19, highlight his capability to perform under pressure.
