Mohammed Shami Targets India Comeback in Landmark Duleep Trophy Match

Mohammed Shami is a fast bowler who wants to play for India again.

He has not played for the national team since the 2025 Champions Trophy final.

Now he is preparing for his 100th first-class cricket match.

He will play for East Zone against South Zone in the Duleep Trophy final.

The match will begin in Chennai on Sunday.

His captain, Ishan Kishan, says Shami still works hard and wants to win.

Shami also helps Kishan with advice about leading the team.

Some people think his return to India may be difficult because selectors have not shown much interest.

Shami is being honored for reaching this important career milestone.
