KXIP pacer Mohammed Shami has said that he shares a great camaraderie with his skipper KL Rahul on the field and that has helped him to excel in the tournament as a bowler. It is noteworthy that Shami is second on the list of the highest wicket-takers this season and the pacer has led the KXIP bowling attack for the majority of the tournament this year.
His team, Kings XI Punjab, had a very poor start to their IPL 2020 campaign as they could win only 1 in the first 7 matches that they played in the tournament. However, they have made a strong comeback in the second half of the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League as KXIP have gone on to win their last 5 games consecutively, three of which came against the table toppers.
Mohammed Shami Opens Up On His Camaraderie With KL Rahul
Speaking exclusively to Times Now, Mohammed Shami said, “Rahul and I have played international cricket for a long time now, and we understand each other really well. We respect each other a lot. When it is about batting, I listen to him, and vice versa when it comes to bowling. It is very important for a bowler in a format like T20 cricket to have the support and trust of your captain. That helps in increasing the confidence of the bowler.”
