Mohammed Shami posts pictures of himself walking in crutches, still far away from total recovery

Shami has been absent from cricketing action since the ODI World Cup final in November. He will not be fit in time to play the T20 World Cup either.

Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami on Tuesday updated his fans on his injury and uploaded a series of photos of himself using crutches to X (previously Twitter). Since competing against Australia in the ODI World Cup final on November 19 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the speedster has not participated in any type of cricket competition.

Mohammed Shami’s long absence

Mohammed Shami was absent from the Test series against South Africa and England, as well as the T20Is against Australia. Additionally, the pacer was not selected to play for Gujarat Titans in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL). In the IPL 2023, Shami won the Purple Cap after finishing the tournament as the leading wicket-taker. Even though things have been difficult, Shami isn’t giving up on his dreams of recovering quickly.
