Mohammed Shami has announced his retirement from Test cricket, bringing an end to a 13-year career in the sport's longest format, according to Yahoo Sports.
The announcement closes the door on any possibility of a full-fledged Test comeback for the veteran fast bowler, who had been working to return to the format. A former India cricketer, reacting to the news, remarked that fate simply did not allow his comeback to materialize, per Yahoo Sports.
Shami built his reputation over more than a decade as one of India's key fast bowling options in Test cricket, and his retirement marks the conclusion of that chapter of his career.
