Raina Backs Shami's India Return After Bhuvneshwar Recall

Suresh Raina has backed Mohammed Shami's return to the India team, drawing a parallel with Bhuvneshwar Kumar's recall for the T20I series against New Zealand starting October 22, 2026. Kumar, 36, returns after nearly four years on the back of 28 IPL wickets. Raina said Shami, also 36, has impressed in domestic cricket.
