According to BJP sources, BJP wants to field Shami from Basirhat Lok Sabha constituency. This constituency is very sensitive right now. Sandeshkhali, from where horrific cases of atrocities against women have recently come to light, falls in Basirhat seat only. The number of minority votes is highest in this constituency.

Political experts believe that fielding Shami will be a masterstroke by PM Modi as he is now one of the trending heroes of Indian cricket.
