Overview
- Mohammed Shami responded to Sanjay Manjrekar's remarks suggesting his IPL 2025 auction price may drop due to injury concerns.
- Shami mocked Manjrekar on Instagram, sarcastically referring to him as 'Baba' and questioning his predictive abilities.
- Manjrekar had argued that Shami's injury history could make IPL franchises hesitant to invest heavily in him during the auction.
- Shami recently returned to competitive cricket after a year-long injury, delivering a strong performance in the Ranji Trophy with 7 wickets in a match.
