Rohit sharma on mohammed shami and kuldeep yadav: India captain Rohit Sharma has confirmed that veteran fast bowler Mohammed Shami and ‘Chinaman’ spinner Kuldeep Yadav are fit for the initial match of the Champions Trophy against Bangladesh in Dubai. Let me tell you, the Indian team will start their ICC Champions Trophy campaign against Bangladesh on Thursday, February 20. Team India’s eyes will be on starting their campaign with victory. India last won the Champions Trophy title in 2013. Whereas in 2017, India had to face defeat against Pakistan in the final.
However, the situation is slightly different for India, as Team India is landing without its best bowler Jaspreet Bumrah. Bumrah, considered the best fast bowler in all formats in the current generation, is not in the team due to “lower back injury”. Harshit Rana has been included in the team in his place.
In such a situation, India will have high expectations from Mohammed Shami. Apart from this, Kuldeep Yadav can also play an important role. Mohammed Shami’s return to international cricket has not been so spectacular. Kuldeep Yadav, on the other hand, was also out of the playing XI since the Test series against New Zealand and he made a comeback from the series against England.
In a press conference held on the eve of the match against Bangladesh, Rohit Sharma said, “His bowling fitness is fine. We wanted Shami to get the fitness of bowling. He has played some matches. , He is absolutely right for us. Are and if both perform, it is great for us. “
During the preparation of the Champions Trophy, Shami and Kuldeep participated in two ODIs against England. He worked hard to get his rhythm and managed to take two wickets each.
Both teams are for the Champions Trophy: India: Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Akshar Patel, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Harshit Rana, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Ravindra Jadeja, Varun Chakraborty.
