Shami makes case for World Cup XI with 5-wicket haul
Mohammad Shami has made a strong case for himself ahead of the World Cup 2023. The pacer, who has not been a consistent member in Team India’s XI, picked a 5-wicket haul against Australia in first ODI in Mohali. Notably, Team India is tempted to pick an extra all-rounder to boost their batting but Shami’s spell has shown how Team India needs 3 proper seamers in the XI to challenge opposition batters.
