Mohammed Shami hoped to make his comeback in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) as he bowled for more than an hour at one of the main pitch at Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium
According to the report, Shami took part in fielding drills as he continued to recover from an ankle injury, which forced him to stay away from the field since November
ESPNcricinfo stated that India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar and bowling coach Morne Morkel were also present during Shami's bowling practice
Ahead of the first Test match between India and New Zealand, skipper Rohit Sharma emphasized the team's cautious approach, stating they do not want an unfit Shami to participate in the Test series due to swelling in his knees that has hampered his recovery
