Mohammed Shami retires from Test cricket after a 13-year career, focusing on limited-overs cricket.
Indian pacer Mohammed Shami has announced his retirement from Test cricket, concluding a 13-year career in the longest format of the game. He will continue to represent India in limited-overs cricket. The 36-year-old fast bowler made this announcement via a social media post. Shami finished his Test career with 229 wickets from 64 matches at an average of 27.71, boasting six five-wicket hauls.
As the sixth-highest wicket-taking fast bowler for India in Test cricket, he ranks behind Kapil Dev, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, Javagal Srinath and Jasprit Bumrah. Shami's decision marks the end of a significant chapter in his international career, as he shifts his focus to shorter formats.
