India national cricket team pacer Mohammed Shami will likely be seeking an expert in London to help him ease his injury woes, according to a report by Cricbuzz. Shami has been out injured since immediately after the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Final; in the time elapsed since, the pacer has missed India's T20 Internationals series against Australia, tour of South Africa, and T20 series against Afghanistan. He is also expected to miss India's five-game Test series with England. (More Cricket News)

The Board of Control for Cricket in India has lately stepped forward and sent injured Indian stars overseas to undergo surgery or to step up recovery - continues the report. BCCI recently sent Suryakumar Yadav to have surgery due to a sports hernia in Germany; Surya has since revealed that the surgery was successful and, as per the timeline reported, is likely to be back in action on the eve of the Indian Premier League and the ICC T20 Cricket World Cup beyond. The Indian cricket board is also reportedly looking to send Rishabh Pant to London for the same reasons, with the batter-wicket-keeper coming back from more than a year out.
