Injury Concerns for Mohammed Shami Ahead of Border-Gavaskar Series

Mohammed Shami has been grappling with an ankle injury since November, impacting his playing time. Despite signs of recovery, he remains absent from Bengal's squad for the upcoming Ranji Trophy matches against Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh. Shami had resumed full-intensity bowling last month, but his exclusion suggests he's still not match-fit. The fast bowler's availability against Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy remains uncertain. The series, starting from November 22 in Perth, promises thrilling encounters. Shami's absence will be felt as Bengal looks to adapt without him. Anustup Majumdar will lead Bengal in his absence. In India's squad for the Border-Gavaskar Series are players like Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and Ravichandran Ashwin. Shami's recovery will be closely monitored as the series approaches, with fans eagerly awaiting his possible return to action.
