Courtesy of his heroics, India bowled Bangladesh out for just 228 runs. Shami, who was out of action for a long time as he was recovering from his injury, returned during the recent home limited-overs series against England.

He did not look at his very best but was fit enough to play in the 2025 Champions Trophy for India. Moreover, with Jasprit Bumrah ruled out, Shami is expected to lead India's attack and he has done rightly so in the first game with his terrific performance.
