However, the BCCI so far has not clarified whether the decision was taken simply on merit or in view of the ongoing controversy involving shami's wife, who accused the Bengal pacer of domestic violence and carrying on extra-marital affairs.
Shami faces charges of attempting to murder his wife by poisoning her, with a First Information Report filed at the Jadavpur police station the implicating the cricketer and four others under various sections of the Indian Penal Code.
