Meanwhile, in other news, Shami won’t be playing in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) due to a left ankle injury. He’s set to undergo surgery in the UK, according to a BCCI source. Despite receiving the Arjuna Award recently, the 33-year-old hasn’t been part of the current Test series against England. His last match for India was in the ODI World Cup final against Australia last year.
“Shami was in London in the last week of January to take special ankle injections and he was told that after three weeks, he can start light running and take it from thereon. But the injection hasn’t worked and now the only option left is surgery. He will shortly leave for the UK for surgery. IPL seems out of the question,” a BCCI source was quoted as saying.
