Many changes are being seen in the Indian T20 team at this time and the reason for these experiments is the upcoming T20 World Cup which is to be held in Australia. Keeping this in view, the team and selectors want to try out all those players who can represent the team in T20 at the world level in the coming days. At the same time, there is a player who is undoubtedly one of India’s top bowlers in white ball cricket but now he is out of the T20 race. We are talking about Indian pacer Mohammed Shami.

Mohammed Shami has been a frequent part of the Indian team in ODIs and Test cricket. But has not played in T20 cricket since the T20 World Cup 2021. According to a report in ‘InsideSport’, the selectors want to retain Mohammed Shami in ODIs and Tests but have now made up their mind not to keep him in T20 International cricket. In the shorter format, they want to try the youth only.

Mohammed Shami is no longer young and we want him fresh for Tests

A member of the selection committee told the portal. Mohammed Shami is no longer young and we want him fresh for Tests. That’s why he is not being given a chance in T20 cricket. After the T20 World Cup, we have to take his assignments from him.” There have been talks about him. Now that will be our strategy. Right now he is no longer a part of our strategy in T20, our focus is on the youngsters.”

Mohammed Shami’s position is somewhat similar to that of Indian senior player Shikhar Dhawan. Who is not getting a place in the Test and T20 team. But in ODI cricket he is still a part of the selectors’ strategy and remains in the team.
