Shami Brushes Off India Calls: 'We're Just Labourers'

Lucknow Super Giants' Mohammed Shami just fired back at the chatter about his India return. He's a "labourer," he says—keeps grinding out those overs, injuries be damned. IPL 2026's seen him shine. Strong Ranji numbers back it up: 37 wickets lately. Sourav Ganguly's in his corner, too. Wants him alongside Jasprit Bumrah.

Shami owned LSG's 5-wicket victory against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Picture this: a tight 2/9 spell that strangled them. Collapse followed. They limped to 156/9. Rishabh Pant wrapped it up unbeaten on 68 off 50 balls.
