Shamsi is looking to choose ‘insider information’ about the UAE pitch ahead of T20 WC

New Delhi: Arrange to play for Rajasthan Royals in the second leg of the IPL, South African Spinner Tabraiz Shamsi said he wanted to collect some “information inside” about the UAE Pitches before he returned to the country for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
Shamsi, the world no.
1 Bowler T20i rating in ICC ranking, will join Royals Squad as a replacement for Australia Pacer Andrew Tye for the rest of the IPL scheduled to be held in the UAE from September 19.
“I won’t sit here and pretend I’m not excited (IPL).
I’m very excited.
Especially because I have never played in Dubai and Abu Dhabi,” Shamsi said as quoted by ‘Espncricinfo’.
“IPL is a different thing.
I have played in the past but I am much younger and I don’t get a lot of time matches regularly.
When you get regular game time, you can display what you can do.
You can fix it.” Shamsi previously played four IPL matches where he took three Wickets for the Royal Challengers Bangalore, who had recruited him as a substitute during the 2016 season.
“…
I’m really happy, I was picked up at the IPL because I had never been there and played on There, “said Shamsi, who has since taken 45 goals in 39 T20IS, along with 32 goals in 27 ODIS for South Africa.
“It would be nice if I could play on the field and get inside information and get experience; just to be able to take some knowledge and information that might help us at the World Cup.” The 31-year-old left arm spinner feels South Africa will do well at the T20 World Cup, given their strong bowling attack.
“…
I believe we have one of the best bowling attacks in the world.
What we need is just the time of the game.
I didn’t say that because we had won several back-to-back series.
That’s talent in the squad there,” he said.
“We may not be experienced at the international level but that does not mean that we have no skills.
We showed that against the West Indies team which was very strong, and against Ireland.” No one here who wants to lose and I know the people back home don’t want to see us lose.
So we pushed it.
We only need more time together.
The more we play together the better we will get.
