Indian cricket team fast bowler Mohammed Shami took to social media to blast 'fake' media reports that claimed he took a dig at Amit Mishra for the latter's comments on Virat Kohli. Some media reports suggested that Shami's comments on Kohli during the interview with Shubhankar Mishra on YouTube were a direct reply to Mishra who claimed that Kohli has changed due to 'fame and power'. However, Shami rubbished any such rumours and even said that it is his request to new outlets that they check and verify their stories. “Disappointed to see false information circulating about Amit Mishra. It's humble request to verify news sources before publishing,” Shami posted on X (formerly known as Twitter). Disappointed to see false information circulating about Amit Mishra.

When asked about his friends in the Indian cricket team, Shami took the names of Kohli and Ishant Sharma. "Virat Kohli and Ishant Sharma are my best friends. They constantly kept calling me when I was injured," the fast bowler answered during the interview.
The comments were taken by some as a direct reply to Amit Mishra who claimed in an earlier episode of the show that Kohli has very few friends in the team as he has changed quite a bit over time.
