Mohammed Shami was the top wicket-taker in the 2023 ODI World Cup played on Indian soil. But after the World Cup, Shami could not return to the field. Shami had actually been away from cricket for some time due to injury. He had a heel injury and played in the World Cup with that injury.
However, Shami underwent surgery on February 26 and now a major update on his fitness between IPL 2024 has been released. He couldn’t play IPL due to injury. So let us know what his latest fitness update says and when Shami can return to the field.
Shami was previously on bed rest, but now he has shared a picture on social media of himself standing with support, wearing shorts and a yellow T-shirt. In the caption, the Indian fast bowler wrote, “Back on track and hungry for success. The journey may be difficult, but the destination is worth it.”
So let us tell you that while there was an update on Shami before the start of IPL 2024, the Board of Control for Cricket in India said that he will miss this season of the Indian Premier League. Furthermore, the board had also clarified that Indian pacers will not be able to take part in the 2024 T20 World Cup in June. At the same time, no official information has been announced about when he will return to the field.
Back on track and hungry for success. The journey may be hard, but the destination is worth it.
