East Zone have won this after a very long time,” Shami said. “Achieving this in my 100th match is special.
Your eyes must always be set on the next level,” he said. And honestly, if you can’t exploit reverse swing in this kind of heat, what’s the point,” Shami said. “Whether it’s your first match or your 100th, the effort and the approach remain exactly the same. You play for the badge. I trust my line and length completely.
Asked if he keeps telling himself that his chance for the national team will come, Shami smiled and said, “I have to keep thinking that. The real test is when conditions don’t suit you, that’s when delivering for your team matters most,” he said. “I wouldn’t call it fun, but it turns into a completely different tactical battle. When conditions are in your favour, executing plans is straightforward. “That’s when your skill is tested in its purest form. Whenever challenging situations arise, I want to put my hand up and deliver for the side.”
