'He could have been the difference': Shastri, Ponting on Shami's absence
Ravi Shastri and Ricky Ponting are disappointed with India's decision not to include Mohammed Shami for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. They believe Shami's presence would have improved India's chances. Despite showing readiness, Shami was ruled out due to knee swelling. They argue that Shami's experience and fitness management could have been crucial.
