I was confident of proving my innocence, says Shami

TIL Desk Sports/ A hurt but ‘relieved’ Mohammed Shami, on Thursday, said that he was always confident about proving his innocence in the wake of corruption allegations levelled against him by his wife Hasin Jahan.

The beleagured Indian pacer was absolved of all charges related to corruption after the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) Anti Corruption Unit (ACU) headed by Neeraj Kumar gave him a clean chit after a week long investigations on allegations of having accepted money from a certain Pakistani girl named Alishba and UK based Mohammed bhai.

“I was under tremendous pressure but now I feel relieved after BCCI cleared me of wrong-doing. I was hurt that my loyalty and commitment towards my nation was questioned. But I had full faith in BCCI’s investigation process. I am looking forward towards getting back on the field,” Shami told media persons. One of India’s most craftiest fast bowlers of recent times, Shami said that the past two weeks were extremely tough for him.
