After being out of the ODI side for a considerable amount of time, Mohammed Shami made a comeback in the series against West Indies last year. However, Shami was dropped after a few games. But his terrific performance in the Test series paved way for his selection in the ODI side against Australia.

In the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, Shami got an opportunity to play in all the three games of the series and he grabbed the opportunity with both hands. The 28-year-old looked extremely sharp throughout the series. He will have a crack at the Kiwi top order which consists of Martin Guptill and Colin Munro.

Talking about Munro, the left-hander has had a resounding success in limited-overs cricket for New Zealand. Even though his average is on the lower side, his high strike-rate of 106.7 is a testimony of his hitting abilities.

Shami attacked the Aussie batsmen with a lot of short stuff and it will be interesting to see how Munro tackles this particular ploy from the Indian pacer.
