Indian fast bowler Mohammad Shami opened his mouth on the issue of stopping himself while prostrating during a World Cup match.
After completing his five-wicket haul against Sri Lanka in a World Cup group stage match, he dropped to his knees and appeared to bow.
At this very moment, he stopped himself from going into prostration and stood up again.
This video of Shami went viral, on which social media users said that Shami did not prostrate because he was afraid of his reaction.
However, now on this issue, Mohammad Shami said that he is proud to be a Muslim and an Indian.
He also said that if he wanted to prostrate, no one could stop him.
Mohammad Shami said that he had never bowed out after taking five wickets in his career.
The fast bowler said that if I wanted to prostrate I would have done it, what is the problem in that? If I need someone’s permission even to perform Sajdah, then why should I stay in this country?
