IND vs ENG: Mohammed Shami is not completely fit, may be out of the second T20 match also

sports desk: No one is able to assess the fitness of Mohammed Shami. Indian team's experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami has returned to the team after 14 months. After not playing the first T20 against England, questions are being raised on his fitness. However, everyone shrugged it off saying that Shami is completely fit.

Before the second test, Shami bowled in the nets for about an hour and sweated profusely. Will we play the second T20 match or not? There has been no reaction on this either. However, before this match, the team's star batsman Abhishek Sharma got injured. Now their situation will also have to be assessed. Will he play the next match or not?

Started the practice session with jogging

Shami, who last played for India in the 2023 World Cup final, worked hard to regain his bowling rhythm in Chepauk but he is not yet in his old rhythm. Shami was expected to be included in the playing eleven during India's first T20 International against England in Kolkata on Wednesday but the management decided to postpone his return. Like Eden Garden, Shami was actively present during the net session here too. He started with a light jogging session with assistant coach Abhishek Nair.

Shami is not fully fit

After that Shami took part in the fielding drill. During this time, Shami had a bandage on both his legs. After this he bowled with a short run-up but after bowling a few balls, he started bowling with full run-up but he did not look comfortable in it. If you say so then he is not completely fit.

After bowling for some time, Shami talked to Morkel and coach Gautam Gambhir. During this, there was a break for a few minutes. After this he returned to bowling in the nets but did not appear to be completely in rhythm. Now it remains to be seen how long will Mohammed Shami be fully fit. The Champions Trophy tournament is going to start from next month. In such a situation, Shami is an important part of the Indian team.
