‘Zid’ and ‘junoon’ of Mohammed Shami: The man who refuses to give up, no matter what life throws at him
Apart from moving the ball both ways, Mohammed Shami also has two ingrained ingredients in him -- "zid" to prove everyone wrong and "junoon" to prove himself again, and again. These have kept Shami going despite facing rejection from his home state Uttar Pradesh in his teens, a knee surgery that almost ended his career, a near-death experience in a road accident, suicidal thoughts during personal crisis, vitriolic trolling after losing to Pakistan, and several other roadblocks.
