According to Bharat Arun, Ravi Shastri persuaded Mohammed Shami to continue playing cricket.
After Shami failed a fitness test prior to the England visit, the incident occurred.
Navdeep Saini took Shami's position in the Indian team, but Shastri encouraged the star bowler to return at any costs.
In order to prepare for his comeback, the former India coach then sent Shami to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru for a month.
That year, Shami had a triumphant comeback, playing in all five of the Test matches against England and claiming 16 wickets.
A few months later, Shami played a key role in India's historic series in Australia.
