Mohammed Shami on Inzamam Ul Haq: In the match against Australia in the T20 World Cup 2024, Arshdeep Singh’s ball started reverse swinging after just 15 overs. On this, Pakistani legend Inzamam-ul-Haq had expressed doubts that the Indian team had tampered with the ball. Now Team India’s fast bowler Mohammed Shami has made a sharp attack on Inzamam-ul-Haq’s statement.
Actually, India was facing Australia in the Super-8 stage of the World Cup. This match was very important for the Kangaroo team to reach the semi-finals. Meanwhile, Arshdeep Singh’s ball started reverse swinging in the 16th over. But on this, Inzamam-ul-Haq said that the ball cannot reverse swing so quickly under any circumstances. Inzamam even said that the umpires keep their eyes closed when some teams play, of which India is also one.
You do the magic, someone else…
Mohammad Shami took a dig at Inzamam-ul-Haq in an interview and said, “He has just dug out another example of how Arshdeep reversed the ball. I want to say only one thing to Inzamam-ul-Haq that if you do it, it becomes a magical ball, but if someone else does it, it is called tampering with the ball. Such a statement does not suit a player of this stature. Show this cartoonishness somewhere else. No magic is needed to reverse swing the ball. You only have to keep the ball in the right condition.”
When will Mohammed Shami return?
Mohammed Shami has been injured since the 2023 ODI World Cup. His break has been quite long, but recently he was seen bowling in the nets. Shami was last seen playing against Australia in the 2023 World Cup final. With the pace at which he is recovering, it is possible that Shami can be fully fit before the Australian series this year.
