IND vs BAN: Mohammed Shami Ruled Out Of Bangladesh ODI Series Due To New Injury, BCCI Announces Replacement
Senior India pacer Mohammed Shami has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI series in Bangladesh due to a fresh shoulder injury which he copped during a training session, the BCCI announced on Saturday morning. The BCCI has also named fast bowler Umran Malik as Shami’s replacement for the ODI series.

Shami had sustained his shoulder injury in a training session
According to a report in ESPNcricinfo, Shami had sustained his shoulder injury in a training session after he’d returned from Australia where India exited in the T20 World Cup semi-final.

Umran Malik recently made his ODI debut in New Zealand, picking 3 wickets in 3 ODIs, and did well on his debut to dismiss Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell.

Mohammed Shami is also unlikely to feature in the Test series.
India has a full-strength squad among the available players for this Bangladesh ODI series as Rohit Sharma’s team starts their preparation for the ODI World Cup 2023 later in the year in October-November at home.

Amongst the first-choice players, India are missing Jasprit Bumrah, who is recovering from a back injury, and Ravindra Jadeja, who has been ruled out of the ODI series and possibly from the Tests too as he continues his recovery from a knee surgery.
