Rohit Sharma Mohammed Shami: Team India is currently busy playing a five-match Test series against Australia. On the other hand, Mohammed Shami, who was the sensation of Team India in the ODI World Cup, is making a lot of noise in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. A few days ago, such reports had come out in which it was said that Shami can join Team India for the Test series against Australia.
But meanwhile a big issue is coming to light regarding Mohammed Shami. Along with Shami, Rohit Sharma’s name has also come up in this case. In fact, it is being claimed in media reports that all is not well between Rohit Sharma and fast bowler Mohammed Shami.
After the defeat in the Adelaide Test, when Rohit Sharma was asked about Shami in the press conference, he said that we are keeping an eye on him because while playing Syed Mushtaq Ali, there was some swelling in his knee, due to which he could not play the Test match. His preparation to play is being hindered. We want to be very careful, we don’t want to bring them here, they could get into more trouble. Although the doors are always open for them.
All is not well between Rohit and Shami
But if media reports are to be believed, something else is brewing inside Team India. According to reports, all is not well between Rohit Sharma and Mohammed Shami. There is suspicion of internal discord between the two. Rohit and Shami met in Bengaluru before the three-match Test series played against New Zealand.
At the time when Team India was about to play a Test series against New Zealand in Bengaluru, Shami was also present at the NCA in Bengaluru. During this time Rohit and Shami met. Then there was a conversation between Shami and Rohit regarding the comments made by Rohit on Shami. Regarding Shami’s injury, Rohit had said that due to swelling in Shami’s knee, he is not being included in the team. It is difficult to say whether he will be fit for this series or Australia series. Due to this statement of the captain, Shami became angry with him. It was a heated meeting between the two.
Demand to call Shami in Team India
Apart from Jasprit Bumrah, no bowler other than Jasprit Bumrah could perform brilliantly in the second day-night Test match of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, after which voices have started being raised to call Mohammed Shami from India and include him in the team. Former Indian coach Ravi Shastri has also demanded Shami’s inclusion in the team, but Rohit, who is defending all the other bowlers, is not looking positive about Shami.
