Mohammed Shami named in Bengal squad for Ranji Trophy
Mohammed Shami has been named in Bengal's squad for the Ranji Trophy, marking his return to competitive cricket after a long injury layoff.
The squad was announced on October 7. Shami is expected to be available for selection from October 15, giving Bengal's bowling attack a major boost.
The fast bowler has been out of action while recovering from injury. His return to domestic cricket is seen as a key step towards a national team comeback.
Bengal will rely on Shami's experience with the new ball. The team management has said his workload will be managed carefully in the early matches.
Domestic cricket watchers say Shami's comeback is one of the stories of the season. A strong Ranji showing could put him back in India's selection frame.
Selectors will watch his fitness closely during the early domestic games. Bengal open their campaign at home, where seamer-friendly early-season pitches should suit his style of bowling.
