Shami has picked eight wickets in the tournament. “I am trying to get my rhythm back and contribute more for the team. It is a responsibility when there are no two proper fast bowlers and I have to shoulder more responsibility,” Shami said in a mixed zone interaction after India’s semi-final victory over Australia here on Tuesday.
“There is a load when you are the one main fast bowler. You have to pick wickets and lead from the front. I am used to this load and am trying my best to make it easy for others and give more than 100 per cent,” he said.
