Former Cricketer Dinesh Karthik Says India Has Moved Beyond Mohammed Shami for 2027 World Cup
India's recent ODI series win over the West Indies exposed weaknesses in the bowling attack, with calls to recall veteran pacer Mohammed Shami for the 2027 World Cup. Despite Shami's strong domestic performances, former India wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik stated that the team has moved beyond him and sees no point in his return. Karthik also noted concerns about the future of ODI cricket following the eventual retirements of key players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.
