I thought of committing suicide thrice, reveals Shami

TIL Desk Sports/ In a startling revelation, #Indianspeedster #MohammedShami has claimed that he thought of #committingsuicide thrice while battling personal issues a few years ago, forcing his family to keep a watch over him at all times. He said his family members feared he “might jump” from their 24th floor apartment.

Shami, one of India’s leading bowlers in recent years, opened up on his personal and professional life during an #Instagram chat with teammate and limited overs squads’ vice-captain #RohitSharma.
