The left-hand chinaman spinner of South Africa, Tabraiz Shamsi is delighted to tour India again. In his tweet, he calls the Bangalore city his home, and he is glad to come with South Africa A. His tweet reads as:

“The last time I was in Bangalore I was representing the team in red and black…. it feels good to be back “home” with the SA A team

Apart from cherishing the memories from the Indian Premier League, Shamsi termed MS Dhoni as the best finisher. In the picture which he tweeted features the wicketkeeper-batsman of India as well.

In the brackets, Shamsi used the tag with the ex-India skipper. However, Shamsi had a good outing in Sri Lanka. South African management had already hinted out that they are searching a partner of Imran Tahir, and Shamsi could just fill the shoes.
