Former cricketer revealed the biggest secret after Mohammed Shami was out of the Test team.

News India Live, Digital Desk: When the Indian Test team was announced for the difficult tour of South Africa, everyone was surprised to see one name missing from it – and that name was the experienced fast bowler. Mohammed ShamiBCCI said that Shami is “not fully fit yet” and his availability will depend on the fitness test, But in the corridors of cricket, this news is being seen from a different perspective,

Many people believe that this is not just a matter of fitness, but it signals the beginning of a new era in Indian cricket. And this has been further confirmed by former Indian cricketer and cricket expert. Abhishek Nair A big statement from.

Is Shami’s test career coming to an end?

Abhishek Nair has said a very deep and direct thing on this whole matter. According to him, Mohammed Shami’s absence from the team is not just a temporary thing. Nair said, “I think it’s a clear sign that the selectors are now moving forward. They are looking towards the future.”

He believes that the selection committee is now focusing on preparing the next generation of fast bowlers beyond Shami. This is definitely a tough decision, but it is also necessary for the future of Indian cricket.

Why did this ‘period of change’ come?

Mohammed Shami, along with Jasprit Bumrah, has been the backbone of Indian fast bowling for the last decade. Then why did the selectors suddenly need to take this big step?

1. Age and Fitness: Shami is now at that stage of his career where there is a constant risk of injury. Throwing long spells in Test cricket is no longer as easy for his body as before.
2. Giving opportunity to youth: Young fast bowlers like Mukesh Kumar, Prasidh Krishna and Arshdeep Singh are waiting for their turn in the team. If they are not given a chance from now on difficult tours like South Africa, England and Australia, then how will they be prepared for the future.
3. Workload Management: Shami is still a big match winner for India in white ball (ODI and T20) cricket. It may be possible that the selectors want to keep him fresh for big tournaments like T20 and ODI World Cup by keeping him away from Test cricket.

Abhishek Nair also said, “I don’t think Shami has been dropped outright. If any other bowler gets injured or performs poorly, Shami can be called back. But the first choice now will be the young players.”

This decision may be a bit emotional for Indian fans, but it is also a rule of cricket. The stars who are there today will be replaced by new stars tomorrow. Mohammed Shami’s exclusion from the Test team is perhaps the first and biggest story of this change.
