Sunil Narine's batting troubles continued as he was bowled early in Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the 15th match of IPL 2025 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.

Batting in the opening slot, Narine made 7 runs off 7 balls, including a six, before being bowled by a masterful ball from Mohammed Shami in the third over.

Sunil Narine Dismissed Early

Shami served a timely yorker outside off-stump on the third delivery of the over. Narine, in an attempt to play for room, stepped back and attempted to cut the ball to the off-side. But the ball hit an edge before his bat could land on the ground. Wicketkeeper Heinrich Klaasen reacted quickly, diving to the right to take a wonderful catch.

Although there was a definite edge, Narine seemed to be in a trance. The doubt came because his bat hit the ground around the same time as the ball hit the edge.

Although KKR lost initial momentum, they managed to post a decent score of 200/6 in 20 overs, giving their bowlers a good target to defend.

Indian fielders are on radar to the big final of Champions Trophy where some of the straight catches were dropped by players. New Zealand won the toss and choose to bat first, Rohit Sharma lost his straight 15 toss most by any captain. India won their all matches in this champions Trophy edition even beating New Zealand too in league phase. 

Today India's fast bowlers were really not upto the mark Shami who is the second highest wicket taker couldn't able to do much on he was taken out from opening batsman Rachin Ravindra where he lashed out boundries on him, even Hardik Pandaya who accompanied him too got some hard hits which reciprocated Rohit to move on to spinners.

Lagging In Catches Calls The Trouble

It was Shami who started the proceeding by dropping the catch it was the 6th over of the match where he was bowling to Rachin Ravindra, he tapped the ball straight to Shami which was straight forward catch, Shami missed it and injured his hand. Shami in semi-final too dropped the important catch of Travis Head.

The next catch was dropped by Shreyas Iyer same as Rachin Ravindra at the deep mid wicket. Ravindra swept Chakravarthy ball over deep and there stood Iyer who came on running and dropped at the end. That catch was in hand which just tickled at the end moment. Though India made good ground fielding contributions and took some crucial wickets too. 

The Pressure Of Final Pressurize

The pressure of the final always makes you sometimes tilt because your one mistake can take you away from the game. The same thing happened in the 35 over too where Rohit Sharma dropped Darryl Mitchell at the mid-wicket though the catch was quite a tough one but at international standards, you have to get those to acquire the trophy. Rohit Sharma extended his arms high but the effort was 100% but wasn't quite enough to take the catch.

Though it was not enough vice captain Subhman Gill made a blunder by dropping Phillips at mid wicket, where Phillips hit the shot at mid wicket and Subhman standing in shade charged over it but dropped at the end. These catch drops extended the New Zealand score to 251 where they where very behind than the par score but these small errors etched New Zealand to reach the respectable score. Now its upto India how they compose the chase.

Indian fast bowler Mohammad Shami was wrenched with hard words by Islamic Scholar and president of All India Muslim Jamat Shahbuddin Rizvi for drinking up energy drink in the holy month of Ramzan. It all happened in the semi-finals of India vs Australia into their second innings drinks break where the pace bowler was shown drinking an energy drink. After the clip became viral it became the center point of issues. 

Shahbuddin states that Shami has done a big crime. In Islam it is said that keeping roza is a duty and its the duty of everyone whether it be man, woman, or child to keep Roza, if anyone intentionally not keeping roza, its a crime. Cricketer Mohammad Shami hasn't kept Roza. He has committed a big sin by not keeping roza. He is a traitor and will face his own deeds. But after his statments on this social media buzzed up.

Two Much For A Controversy

Even too way annotations came some came into support and some accepted the fact that what Shami did was wrong and it gave a wrong message to the younger generation. Some stated that he is representing our country at the highest level not to drag him into politics. After those harsh comments Shahbuddin got widespread criticism. Sajid Rishidi who belongs to the All India Imam Association states that 

Those who don't know about Islam say such things pointing to Shahbuddin Rizvi he moves on by saying in Islam Muslims are the ones who travel more than 70Kms or have been out for 10-12 days and they are exempted from keeping roza, they can keep roza later.  No one has the right in Islam to call anyone a criminal. How can Shahbuddin Rizvi be so sure to say Shami isn't keeping Roza? They should know before speaking.

Even Shami coach Badruddin has lashed out that these people always speak as they think scholars do not know the situation or the thing. Shami had a great outing against Australia claiming 3 wickets and paved India to reach the finals of the Champions Trophy for the fifth time. After all this congress spokesperson also came in support of Mohammad Shami. 

She was the same person who said Rohit Sharma doesn't look like a cricketer anymore he has put a lot of weight and it gives a bad message to youngsters who take up the game. She states that In Islam, there is a very important thing during Ramzan. When we are travelling, we don't need to fast (Roza), so Mohammed Shami is travelling and he's not at his place. He's playing a sport where he can be very thirsty. Nobody insists that when you're playing a sport, you have to fast. It is your deeds which are very important.

<![CDATA[Mohammad Shami Urged Icc To Rescind The Ban On Using Saliva]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/mohammad-shami-urged-icc-to-rescind-the-ban-on-using-saliva/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/mohammad-shami-urged-icc-to-rescind-the-ban-on-using-saliva/ Thu, 06 Mar 2025 17:00:12 GMT

Mohammad Shami wants to revoke the ban on using saliva on the ball. Using of saliva was banned during COVID-19 times. Where transmission of the virus would have been possible as saliva could carry and transmit the virus through droplets. Mostly saliva is used by bowlers to keep the shine of the ball alive. When saliva is rubbed through the rubbed area becomes a shiner and gives the recipient of reverse swing where the ball is tapped into the reverse format. 

It was mentioned by ICC that the ban was a temporarly mesaure, when the pandemic gets over or suppressed the ban will be automatically revoked. Then in September 2022 instead of revoking ICC made it into permanent ban and suggested to apply sweat or some special foil to add, this was sudden move which no one did expected.

Shami On The Victory Against Australia

Shami expressed his happiness on victory over Australia in Champions Trophy semi final. He said it, was quite a tensed moment when he dropped the catch of Travis Head. But it was quite recultant that he was coming from 1 year injury break where he injured himself during, the final of 2023 World Cup final and the fate has given him another chance to play the final of ICC Champions Trophy. 

Though Travis Head didn't do as much, damage as India thought and Shami too, had a great spell picking 3 wickets in the final of the game. During the press meet he urged the plea to ICC to revoke the usage of saliva to debug the advantage to batsmen as bowlers left nothing to do on a batting track, even it's not only Shami who is alone in this some bowlers have come in support of Mohammad Shami regarding this issue.

Vernon Philander And Tim Southee comes in for support.

Even Shami is not alone but he has got his supporters for this. South African pace bowler Vernon Philander and New Zealand pace bowler Tim Southee had addressed this issue with the ICC, and they said this rule was too early during coronavirus times.  Southee says we have been getting no advantage as bowlers as batsmen they get used to powerplays and field restrictions, 

Mostly Southee and and Phillander went on to say we have seen lots of changes in batting demography but no change in bowling rules.  We have seen in recent years that batters have been dominating and using different shots and change of hands but it leasure bowlers too which can give equal competition to bat and ball.

The semi final of Champions Trophy has began with a mere twist. Australian captain Steve Smith won the toss and choose to bat first. The idea was simple to post a target and to defend though Australian bowling has not even shine in this CT. But the batting has raised the tempo which reflects in their bowling. Australia has mostly chased a target and their bowling hasn't been tested yet. 

Australia have included 4 spinners in their team and India has gone with 3 spinners. Looking the dry conditions teams have allocated their teams and now we have to wait whose decision has been spot on.

The innings had just started and Mohammad Shami started the proceedings with the new ball. Where he started with the wide ball. It was the third ball of the spell where Travis Head shot cuddled with the bat and went back to Shami who dropped the catch trying to attempt it by one hand. It's like the repetition of the 2023 World Cup where Travis Head's stumps were missed by a mere margin which became the deciding factor of the match.

Mohammad Shami is back on to cricket field where he left the World Cup 2023 due to an ankle injury, coming back into another ICC event is not that easy job. Even after coming back and delivering straight away requires a different type of strength. Mohammad Shami was in elite form in World Cup 2023 where his pace and wicket-taking ability had become a serious headache to the opposition. 
It was during the final of the World Cup 2023 and India was poised with a mere target to chase, It was up to bowlers who would give the best outcome of the match. But after a few overs when Shami came to bowl he started feeling uncomfortable which resulted in his ankle injury. 
The Pain To Leave The Field
Mohammad Shami revealed in his latest interview that it was really painful not for the pain but leaving the field without delivering for the country. He lost the hope of coming back in the blue jersey. He encountered the incident with the doctor asking when he would be back on the cricket field. His reply was simple first his job is to make him walk, then jog and run the hard yards. After listening to his words carefully, I thought it would take a long time and lots of thoughts were running through my mind

Whether I will back to the team will I be able to play for India? After my operation, my family became the biggest supporter of mine. After a few months, I was asked to walk, it was so nerve-wracking and so much pain thought it would be the end of mine. But my supporters became my biggest strength even BCCI gave their full support which gave me the strength to regain the confidence beneath me.
Striving the hunger back
It was hard and painful swollen knees to calm down monitoring day and night, but it was all worth it for Shami because his aim to play for India was way more than it. After one year of hard training and rehabilitation finally, it was all worth it for Shami. Still, he was kept on hold for the Bgt series not to give hard yards because BCCI didn't want to take the necessary steps to endure further injury. 

Due to Bumrah's injury in the recent BGT series, no main experienced bowlers were there for the England series and ICC Champions Trophy so Shami was fast-tracked and tried for the England series where he was clicking the clock better. Then what he was on the team sheet of the Champions Trophy. Shami played the first match of the ICC Champions Trophy where he took 5 wickets and restricted Bangladesh to 227. This comeback was not easy for Shami but the desire to play for his country and the toughness he possessed was great.
