Former Team India cricketer Manoj Tiwary questioned the BCCI selection panel for ignoring Mohammed Shami for the ongoing two-match Test series against South Africa. Tiwary stated that there was poor communication regarding Shami's exclusion despite his impressive performances in domestic cricket.
Shami has been overlooked for recent India squads. The senior pacer hasn't featured in a Test since the 2023 WTC Final. He has impressed for Bengal in the ongoing Ranji Trophy, taking 20 wickets in just four matches at an average of 18.60. The fast bowler was not considered for the Test series against South Africa.
