It will be great if I can pass on something to the youngsters-Shami
Team India will get back into action after a span of over two months when they will face New Zealand in the CTW finals between June 18 to 22. Premier pacer Mohammed Shami is set to make his comeback for team India after a gap of over six months. Shami picked up a fracture in his arm during India’s tour of Australia in 2020.

“I am not going to play forever”- Mohammed Shami
Shami made a strong back for the IPL side Punjab Capitals and has also been added to India’s squad for the CTW finals and the England Test, which is scheduled to start from August 4. A couple of pacers like Mohammed Siraj, Shardul Thakur and T Natarajan made their debut in the absence of Shami. Shami’s injury opened a space for these newcomers which allowed the debutants to show their calibre.
Shami has been left impressed by India’s incredible dept in all the departments. Speaking about which, Shami said that he will be more than happy to prepare the upcoming bowlers for the future.It will be great if I can pass on something to the youngsters
“It comes automatically as after being in international cricket for so many years, I would like to share any input that the youngsters may want. I am not going to play forever, so it will be great if I can pass on something to the youngsters,’’ Shami told Gulf News in an interview.
“We have played some extraordinary cricket in recent times as a unit and naturally, the confidence level is high on the eve of our departure for England. If we can reproduce some of the forms which we did over the last six months, I am confident it will be a great summer for us,” Shami added.
