US EditionIndia Squad for Test Tour of England: Shami Misses Out
- India revealed their lineup for the upcoming five-Test series against England starting June 20 at Headingley, with Mohammed Shami omitted from the squad.
- Selectors decided to omit Shami due to his recent ankle surgery, recurring knee pain, and inability to sustain long bowling spells under medical advice.
- Shami has returned to domestic and IPL cricket this year but has struggled to build the workload required for Tests, while younger pacers like Arshdeep Singh and Anshul Kamboj are contenders to replace him.
- Shami’s Test record includes 229 wickets in 64 matches with six five-wicket hauls, but his IPL economy rate of 11.23 and limited overs bowled raise concerns about his current form and fitness.
- Excluding Shami may impact India's pace attack depth, but selectors appear to prioritize fitness and workload capacity for the demanding England conditions.
