Colombo: Ahead of India's match against Bangladesh, Indian bowling coach Paras Mhambrey talked about how difficult is to leave Mohammed Shami out from the playing 11, who has been dropped after the Nepal's game.
Mohammed Shami played in the match against Nepal on September 4 as Jasprit Bumrah went back home to see his newborn baby, Angad. In the match against Nepal, Shami had taken one wicket by conceding 29 runs. But soon after Bumrah's rejoining, He made a comeback in the playing 11 leaving out Shami, who didn't get a chance against Pakistan and Sri Lanka in Super Four stage matches.
In a pre-match press conference, Paras Mhambrey said, "It's not easy to have a conversation on leaving out a player like Shami, but any decision we have taken the players know; one is the intent ... and anything that is better for the team and we looks from the teams perspective. He understands why he is not in the team".
