Shami last played for India in the 2023 World Cup, where he was instrumental in India’s impressive performance. He took 24 wickets in seven matches at an average of 10.70, showcasing his importance to the team. Unfortunately, Shami’s knee issues have kept him out of several key series and tournaments.
