With the IPL 2025 season approaching, SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) received a major boost as Mohammad Shami made a hero-like entry into their camp, signaling his readiness for the tournament. After a remarkable Champions Trophy campaign, where he finished as the joint second-highest wicket-taker, Shami is set to play a pivotal role in SRH’s revamped bowling attack.
The veteran pacer, who recovered from an ankle injury that sidelined him for most of 2024, made a strong comeback in domestic cricket for Bengal and later in the white-ball series against England.
SRH secured Shami’s services for a hefty INR 10 crore during the IPL mega auction, outbidding multiple franchises. In his IPL career so far, Shami has featured in 110 matches, claiming 127 wickets at an economy rate of 8.43. His experience and consistency make him a key asset for SRH’s bowling unit this season.
Expected to open the bowling alongside Pat Cummins, the pair is likely to form one of the most lethal pace duos in IPL 2025. Shami’s arrival adds depth and quality to SRH’s squad as they aim for a strong season, with the 33-year-old expected to be a match-winner in crucial games.
