The seasoned fast bowler was equally quick on the draw while addressing the media. Fresh from a five for 54 yield against New Zealand, India seamer Mohammed Shami spoke with remarkable candour at the HPCA Stadium here on Sunday night. “I bowled a good line and length and took whatever came my way,” he quipped.
When asked about his favourite dismissal, Shami replied: “All dismissals are my favourites. It is difficult to pick one, it is like making a building, every brick matters and so is the case with every wicket, they all matter a lot.”
There was a tricky query about him being benched in the previous games and Shami handled it with grace: “Yes it was a bit difficult to be on the bench but I saw it this way, I am part of a World Cup squad and I was sure I will get a game, if not tomorrow, then may be day after and when that happens I should be ready. More than all that I enjoyed the success of my teammates, there is no space for jealousy here.”
