Mohammed Shami has been going through a rough patch for some time now.
At present, the phase of retirement is going on in Indian cricket. Within the last one week, Virat Kohli and Rohit have retired from Test cricket. After the retirement of these two players, the Indian Test team has been going through a big change for some time. After the retirement of senior players, the responsibility of handling the Indian Test team fell on the young players.
Among the most senior players, only Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja are left. After Kohli and Rohit’s retirement, there is a lot of discussion about Shami’s retirement. However, the fast bowler has broken his silence regarding his retirement and has hinted that he has no thoughts about retirement right now.

Fast bowler Mohammed Shami has completely rejected the news of retirement by sharing a screenshot of a news on Instagram. Shami wrote, “Very good Maharaj, count the days of your job, you can see later how much is left for your farewell. People like you have ruined us. Sometimes you should say something good about the future, today’s worst story, sorry.”
Fast bowler Mohammed Shami has been struggling with fitness problems for some time now. He is playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2025 but he has not been able to perform as expected there and due to this, questions are now being raised about his future. He has not played any Test match for India for the last two years. Shami played a Test for India in the final of the 2023 World Test Championship.
India’s fast bowler Mohammed Shami stayed away from cricket for about a year due to injury after the 2023 ODI World Cup. He made a comeback by playing Ranji Trophy. He has played only one red ball match since his comeback. Shami was also part of the team that won the Champions Trophy earlier this year. The fast bowler’s performance was not that good in that tournament as well.
