Mohammed Shami has refused to abandon hopes of an international return, insisting he will fight to reclaim his spot in India's squad after again missing selection for the multi-format tour of New Zealand.
The pace bowler, who has been sidelined repeatedly by injuries in recent seasons, expressed his resolve to prove his fitness and form to selectors. Shami's repeated absence from squads has highlighted the challenges he has faced in maintaining consistency at the highest level of international cricket.
India's tour of New Zealand is set to include Test, One-Day International, and Twenty20 matches, representing a significant opportunity for the team as it prepares for major international commitments. The omission underscores the depth of fast-bowling talent available to the Indian selectors, even as Shami continues to work towards a comeback.
With his track record as a reliable performer in all formats when fit, Shami's determination to return reflects the competitive nature of international cricket selection. The 34-year-old's ability to regain form and fitness will be crucial to his chances of featuring in India's future plans.
