Mohammed Shami was one of the important limited overs bowlers not so long ago but with injuries, he soon became a Test match specialist and played only a handful of ODI matches for India since the last World Cup.

But with the 2019 World Cup around the corner, his experience of playing at the highest stage will be valuable to the team management has named in the limited overs squad for both Australia and New Zealand tours where he became the fastest Indian bowler to take 100 ODI wickets.

With this being said, there is a strong possibility that he may find a place in the World Cup squad as the team can't rely only on the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvi.

Punjab bought Shami at a huge sum of 4.8 crores but they may not be able to field him in all the match that the Kings play. But they have players at their disposal to full his boots.
