The Indian team has to play the five-match Border-Gavaskar Test series on the tour of Australia from November 22 and the Indian team’s squad has been finalized. Meanwhile, veteran fast bowler Mohammad Shami’s name is not part of the squad as he has been absent from the field since last year’s ODI World Cup. Shami underwent surgery on his ankle and has yet to fully recover from the surgery, so his wait to return to action continues to grow. Earlier, it was expected that Shami would be available for the Ranji season opener against Bengal, but that has not materialized yet.
Ranji didn’t get a place in the team even in the next 2 games
Bengal have to play their next two matches against Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh in the 2024-25 Ranji Trophy, with the first match taking place from November 6 to 9 and the second match on November 11 Held from March 13th to 16th. The Bangladesh Cricket Association has announced the squad for the two matches, which does not include Mohammad Shami’s name. From this, it can be clearly estimated that it may take a long time for Shami to fully return to the game. In the first match of the recently concluded three-match Test series between India and New Zealand, Mohammad Shami was seen bowling at NCA, in which some videos of him were also revealed. At that time, everyone expected Shami to be included in the squad for the Australia tour, but this did not happen.
