A hurt but "relieved" Mohammed Shami yesterday 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 BCCI's 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.
Mohammed Shami has been given a Grade 'B' annual contract, which will make him richer by R3 crore. He is also free to play in the IPL for Delhi Daredevils, starting April 7. "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 said.
