New Delhi. Mohammed Shami's Test career may end when the team announced the team for the India vs England series. One of India's finest red ball bowlers, experienced players are struggling for form and fitness due to prolonged absence due to injury. In IPL 2025, Shami can be completely out of the team, given his struggle with Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Ajit Agarkar -led Selection Committee can see Mohammed Shami beyond selecting the team for the India vs England series. Shami underwent surgery after the successful campaign of the 2023 World Cup, returned to the Champions Trophy only in February. However, the 34 -year -old player is not in his best form, he is struggling to create speed and continuity. Shami is struggling to complete his run-up and the ball is not reaching the wicketkeeper as before. He always goes back to the dressing room after a short time to recover.

Shami may fall

It cannot be denied that the lack of rhythm in Shami's bowling is clearly visible and his run up is also seen to be bad. Mohammed Shami was missing after India's defeat in the Border Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. The sources had to keep Shami and Bumrah together, the original plan of the selectors, one of which could play in five Tests. Although there are concerns about Bumrah's charge, Shami has not recently performed well. The starting plan was to ensure that the team could feed one of Shami or Bumrah in at least every Test. If Bumrah is given rest for a match and Shami has trouble playing, then it will be a big problem, they are trying to understand the problem of Shami.

Bad record in England

Had Shami fit, it would have been his fourth visit to England. His information about the circumstances of England can be very useful for the Indian team. However, England is one of the few places in the world where they have to struggle. Shami, 34, has taken wickets in 14 Tests at an average of 40.50 and a strike rate of 69.2. The figures are the worst played by him in any other country. Shami is not already in the best form, in such a situation, it seems difficult to have selection.

Who is the partner of Bumrah?

If Mohammed Shami was not selected, India will have to find a pair for Jaspreet Bumrah. Mohammad Siraj is sure to be chosen and if Bumrah does not play, he will be the real leaders of the attack. Veteran Shardul Thakur can be called back after being impressed by the bat and ball in the Ranji Trophy. Mukesh Kumar, the famous Krishna and Akash Deep were in the team in Australia and they are also likely to join the claim. If the selectors want the left -handed bowler, Arshdeep Singh, Yash Dayal and Khalil Ahmed can be included.
