Mohammed Shami, one of the star performers for India during the ODI World Cup at home, will unfortunately miss the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, meaning he will be out of IPL 2024 as well. The Bengal pacer has been out of action since the 2023 ODI World Cup after undergoing surgery abroad. The senior pacer will most likely miss the World Cup happening in the US and West Indies.
According to information provided by Jay Shah, Mohammed Shami has recently returned to India after traveling abroad for his surgery. He was quoted by PTI, “Shami’s surgery is done, he is back in India. Shami’s return is likely for the home series against Bangladesh.”
The Indian team will be hosting the Bangladesh cricket team for three T20Is and two Tests. Shami will most likely be a part of the squad that will play against Bangladesh. Lately, the senior pacer took to Instagram to share his recovery process.
“Just had a successful heel operation on my achilles tendon! Recovery is going to take some time, but looking forward to getting back on my feet. #AchillesRecovery #HeelSurgery #RoadToRecovery,” Shami posted on X.

If India reaches the final of WTC 2024, Shami will be a key factor as India’s trio, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami, will like to sign off this year with multiple ICC trophies.
