Rohit Sharma, whose participation was uncertain to play in the first test match, will now be seen playing in the first test match after the birth of his son. Along with Rohit Sharma, Mohammad Shami is also going to Australia for the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
Mohammad Shami recently performed brilliantly in the Ranji Trophy and led Bengal to victory against Madhya Pradesh by 11 runs. Shami performed brilliantly in this Ranji Trophy match and took 7 wickets in the second innings and contributed significantly with the bat.
Impressed by the excellent performance of Mohammad Shami, the team management has decided to send him to Australia along with Rohit Sharma. It is worth noting that India has not yet announced its playing eleven for the first test match.
Shami has been out of the team for a long time due to injury. Due to his lack of fitness, he was not selected for the Border Gavaskar Trophy. However, with his brilliant performance in the Ranji Trophy match, Shami has proved both his fitness and form.
Shami has played a very important role in India’s victories in two previous series against Australia on their home soil. Mohammed Shami along with Jasprit Bumrah forms a formidable duo in the Test format.
Mohammad Shami is not only a skilled bowler but also a capable lower-order batsman. He has scored quick runs against teams like England and Australia many times.
