Recently, during an interview, Mohammed Shami got emotional while speaking about his daughter Aira, who stays with his estranged wife Hasin Jahan.
Talking about his daughter, Shami expressed how he misses his daughter a lot as it has been a long time since he last saw her due to Coronavirus led lockdown. He said:
“I could not meet her during the lockdown. She is growing up fast. I miss her a lot,” Shami told PTI.
During the interview, Mohammed Shami also expressed his happiness on the comeback of cricket. He compared his happiness and excitement with that of a kid in a candy shop. He said:
“It’s been a long time since we played cricket. Everyone is happy like kids in a candy store after getting back to the sport they love the most. We had a practice match on Thursday, I didn’t face any issues. Everyone is getting back to the rhythm. I didn’t feel much difference (as I was bowling at my farmhouse),”

Shami also recalled the lockdown phrase when he served the poor migrants near his home in Sahaspur, UP by setting up food centers with his friend Umesh’s help.  Shami, who was training at his farmhouse during the lockdown explained how he used to return back to practice. He revealed:
“For me, it never felt like a lockdown; it just flew away. We were busy since morning arranging food, running six kitchens and in the evening I was back at practice. I am really thankful to the administration and people who helped us,”

Further, Mohammed Shami also talked about how he will miss playing in front of big audiences but also mentioned that it is currently the responsibility of cricketers to bring smiles back on their fans in these tough times. He said:
“It feels great when people cheer us from the stadium, but in the current scenario when that is not possible, it’s our responsibility to cheer them up, people who are battling a difficult time. We can at least do that to our fans. For one season, we can play without the crowd, I don’t think there would be an issue,”
Meanwhile, Kings XI Punjab will begin their IPL 2020 with a match against Delhi Capitals on September 20 in Dubai.
