Shami’s surgery comes as a blow to his IPL team, the Gujarat Titans, as he was ruled out of the 2024 tournament earlier this month due to a left ankle injury. The 33-year-old is a key part of the Indian bowling attack and was expected to play a leading role for the Titans in their title defense.
It is unclear how long Shami will be out of action, but he will likely miss the entire IPL season. The tournament is scheduled to start on March 22nd. Due to the General Election in India, this season will occur in two phases. The first phase of IPL 2024 will run until April 7th, 2024. The schedule for the second phase will be announced shortly after the election dates are finalized.
Shami’s absence is a major setback for the Gujarat Titans, but the team will be hoping that he can make a full recovery and be back in action for the upcoming international season.
