Mohammed Shami hated the GPS vest. He also bowled the straightest seam in India

Former India bowling coach Paras Mhambrey praised Mohammed Shami following the fast bowler's retirement from Test cricket. Mhambrey shared anecdotes about working with Shami, recalling how he hated wearing tracking GPS vests because they made him itch, choosing to rely on his natural rhythm and instincts instead.

Reflecting on Shami's career of 229 wickets across 64 Tests, Mhambrey highlighted his exceptional seam presentation and deceptive pace. He noted that Shami presented a perfectly upright seam that created uncertainty for batters, ranking him among the finest fast bowlers India has produced.
