IPL 2025: Being Able To Change Wet Ball Is A Big Plus, Says SRH Pacer Mohammed Shami
Indian Premier League: India and Sunrisers Hyderabad pacer Mohammed Shami has hailed the Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) decision to reverse the saliva ban and allow replacement of the wet ball in the second innings to counter dew in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The veteran pacer feels that it is a big boost for making the game balance for both batters and bowlers.
“For a long time, the rules have favoured batters - but now, things are finally shifting a bit. After COVID, the saliva ban made it tough to reverse the ball, but with that lifted, bowlers can finally get some swing back. Also, being able to change a wet ball is a big plus - a dry ball gives better grip and life, especially in tough conditions," Shami said on JioHotstar’s special series “Gen Gold”.
The 34-year-old recounted his knee injury and how he returned to competitive cricket by playing domestic matches.
