Is Shami still unfit? Mystery around veteran pacer's exclusion from India's playing XI

Hindustan Times  

Kolkata, Mohammed Shami's much-anticipated comeback will be further delayed as the Indian pacer was not named in India's playing eleven for the first T20I against England, fueling speculations whether national selectors are sanguine about his fitness. Shami himself spoke about his eagerness to return, emphasizing the hard work he put into proving his fitness by playing in all three domestic formats for Bengal—starting with the Ranji Trophy, followed by the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20s, and concluding with the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Shami’s comeback has drawn significant attention in the lead-up to the Champions Trophy, especially with a fitness cloud hanging over star pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who developed a back niggle during the fifth Test in Sydney. Chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar also underlined Shami’s importance while announcing the Champions Trophy squad in Mumbai last week.
