India's legendary speedster Mohammed Shami has started bowling in nets for the first time after getting injured in the ODI World Cup. Shami was India's highest wicket-taker in the World Cup where India lost the final against Australia at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on November 19. He picked up 24 wickets in the marquee event hosted by India last year.

The veteran pacer Shami who is currently on the road to recovery took his Instagram to share his glimpse of bowling in nets before the comeback.
Shami has picked four fifers in the history of ODI World Cups which is the most by any pacer. He will reportedly make his comeback in the upcoming Test match series against Bangladesh. He will be the vital cog for India in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy which will be played in Australia.
Paras Mhambrey's suggestion for selectors
He also said that the pacer needs to be treated differently due to the age factor and the Board have to understand the worth of Shami.
“Individual fitness varies and can’t be of the same level. So, the players have to be treated differently. You can’t compare a Shami with some youngster who has just come in. You have to understand what the value of Shami is. Do you need Shami to do the Yo-Yo or bowl those many balls in a Test and win India the game?” Mhambrey said.
