PERTH, Oct 16: Indian pace star Mohammad Shami joined the practice session of the Indian team in Perth, Australia after being named as a replacement for injured Jasprit Burmah.
In a video shared by BCCI on Twitter, the pacer can be seen being welcomed by the team in a huddle while also participating in the team’s net sessions.
“Raring To Go! @MdShami11 hits the ground running” tweeted BCCI.
The All-India Senior Selection Committee had named Mohammed Shami as Jasprit Bumrah’s replacement in India’s ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 squad. Shami had reached Brisbane ahead of the warm-up matches.
Shami hasn’t played T20Is since last year’s edition of the ICC T20 World Cup. After recovering from COVID-19, he has been training at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru. (ANI)
