Mohammed Shami ruled out of IPL-8

Shami was India's main bowler at the World Cup taking 18 wickets.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Thursday confirmed that India’s pace spearhead Mohammed Shami has been ruled out of the ongoing Indian Premier League due to a knee injury sustained during the ICC Cricket World Cup last month.

“The IPL Technical Committee has approved a replacement for Mohammed Shami in the Delhi Daredevils team. Shami has been ruled out of the ongoing Pepsi IPL season due to a knee injury. The Delhi Daredevils therefore have the option of picking a replacement player,” an IPL media release stated.
