Big update on Mohammed Shami's return, know whether he will play the third T20 or not

The wait for Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami's international comeback is getting longer. Mohammed Shami has been picked in the Indian squad in the ongoing 5-match T20 series against England, but he was not given a chance in the playing XI of the first two matches. However, the fans want him to be featured in the third T20 over at Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot, but according to all the reports coming so far, the wait for his return could be longer.

Mohammed Shami's case was that he was dropped out of the Indian team for about 14 months. He has been included in the squad against England but has not got a chance in two matches. Former India spinner Piyush Chawla told broadcasting that the wait for Shami's return may increase a bit. Chawla said that if you see his run-up, he is still limping. In such a situation, the main focus should be on the Champions Trophy to get fit for it. There are ample matches in this series, and it is not a big deal if he misses out on a couple of matches.

At the same time, according to the report of Rev Sports, Mohammed Shami's childhood coach Badruddin has confirmed that he is fully fit and can play the last two matches of the series. Badruddin told that he had a phone conversation with Shami before leaving for Kolkata for the first T20. He said that he is fully fit. I think the team management is creating a workload, as he has been out of the international set-up for more than a year. I think he will be played in the last 2 T20s before the ODI series. This is the best decision of the team management.

At the same time, a report in TOI quoted a BCCI source as saying that Mohammed Shami is not needed that much in T20 matches. The report claimed that he is bowling with full strength and has also lost two kilos of weight. The source said that he will be ready to play as soon as the India vs England ODIs start.
