00:00
Shami, you said on ICC TV how you had to face difficulties, you learned to walk like a toddler.
00:06
Did this performance especially give you confidence when you came back after the injury?
00:11
You were in the England Series in Leh, but...
00:13
It is very difficult when you are injured and you go from that form, like you were in the World Cup,
00:18
after that it was very difficult, 14 months, because you have to repeat the same things,
00:23
the same things pinch you, you feel that pain every 24 hours.
00:29
It is very difficult, but after the injury, I got domestic matches to gain confidence,
00:36
or to see my rhythm, to see what changes have come in these 14 months, or after this surgery.
00:44
So it was very good for me that I got 4 international matches to play,
00:49
and I played 8-9-10 domestic matches, that thing gave me a lot of confidence.
00:55
Shami, you were sitting with Gautam in the evening,
00:58
you were tying the rope for the boundary, you teased him with a joke,
01:02
tell us about that, and it seems like you don't need to go behind the boundary.
01:06
See, sometimes I feel that yes, there is no need to go behind,
01:10
when your flow is good, when your skill is good,
01:13
but sometimes it happens that when it is a difficult time,
01:17
when your ball is not falling, the boundary also becomes small.
01:20
So we were teasing him, that increase it a little, do something,
01:25
because one side is small, the other side is big.
01:27
So we were just joking, but I think size matters,
01:32
sometimes you are chasing, or when you are defending, that matters.
01:39
Shami, great start for yourself and the team,
01:41
and of course looking forward to the next match, Pakistan team has just landed as well.
01:47
So what mindset will you take for Sunday?
01:51
See, after winning, there is no use of mindset,
01:54
you should be in the same frame when you win a match,
01:57
and when your performance is good.
01:59
I don't think, whether it is an ICC tournament or any international match,
02:03
you need to think more, you should believe in your skill,
02:07
you should back yourself, I always work on these two things,
02:11
that I believe in myself, I back myself,
02:13
so there is no need for a mindset to change,
02:15
if it doesn't change in a difficult time, then it doesn't make sense in such a time.
02:19
Shami, congratulations.
02:20
Shami, around 4 years ago, in Dubai,
02:24
Dubai was not so kind to you,
02:26
and the trolling that happened,
02:28
everyone knows about it, even the captain had to come and defend.
02:31
So after 4 years, these 5 wickets,
02:35
it is said that cricket is a great leveller,
02:40
how do you see this?
02:42
Sir, this is all about the media,
02:44
so there is no need to think much about it,
02:47
in today's social media,
02:49
you create unwanted things,
02:53
you run things in the media,
02:57
which should not be run,
02:59
so according to me, one should not think much,
03:01
the past is the past,
03:03
the performance that was not good,
03:05
people will definitely count it,
03:07
they will definitely pin it in your mind,
03:09
but I think, as a cricketer, as a sportsman,
03:11
you don't need to go back,
03:13
you need to live in the present,
03:16
you need to plan for the future,
03:18
so I think you need to plan for the future.
03:20
Shami, it was so difficult to watch
03:22
the Border Kavaskar series from home,
03:24
when you were recovering,
03:26
Jassi Bumrah needed support,
03:28
and everyone was talking about it,
03:30
and in every press conference,
03:32
they were asking when are you coming there,
03:34
so how difficult was it?
03:36
Sir, it is very difficult,
03:38
I have already told you,
03:40
you are repeating the same thing for 14 months,
03:42
you are feeling the same pain,
03:44
you feel that you are at the edge,
03:46
or you are getting close to the match,
03:48
so there, your supporters,
03:50
the bowlers who are with you,
03:52
or your unit,
03:54
you always miss them,
03:56
I wish I was there,
03:58
I could have contributed something,
04:00
so you always miss them,
04:02
because when you are injured,
04:04
apart from watching the match,
04:06
there is nothing else to do,
04:08
and you watch the match ball by ball,
04:10
so at that time, you feel that
04:13
you could have helped them,
04:15
so you miss them a lot,
04:17
but you have faith in the boys,
04:19
you always win and lose,
04:21
and the performance of the boys,
04:23
is commendable.
04:25
Shami bhai, when you come back to such a big tournament,
04:27
you played England matches,
04:29
but before coming to such a tournament,
04:31
how was the support with the team?
04:33
Rohit teghal said in the press conference,
04:35
whether Shami takes the wicket or not,
04:37
it is a big thing for us,
04:39
so when the captain says such things,
04:42
was that celebration a relief,
04:44
or was it a moment,
04:46
when you gave a flying kiss,
04:48
and felt relaxed in the middle?
04:50
That is for my father,
04:52
because he is my role model,
04:54
it is always for him,
04:56
as far as the captain and coach is concerned,
04:58
this support is very important for every player,
05:00
because when you plan for such a big tournament,
05:02
if you have players who trust you,
05:04
then it is a relief for the captain,
05:06
and it is good for the team,
05:08
so I always tell my father,
05:11
I always try my best,
05:13
the one who is supposed to give,
05:15
is sitting up there,
05:17
but I try my best,
05:19
that the responsibility given to me,
05:21
the role given to me,
05:23
whether I am able to fulfil it or not,
05:25
I always try to find out that,
05:27
and touch wood,
05:29
as you said,
05:31
in the ICC events,
05:33
I don't even know the record,
05:35
which I just told you,
05:37
but thank God,
05:39
that such a record has come in everyone's life,
05:41
Shami,
05:43
in the last 14 months,
05:45
you had a lot of struggles,
05:47
it was a superb comeback,
05:49
but in the 2023 world cup final,
05:51
you were in peak form,
05:53
so do you think you have reached that form,
05:55
or is there still some transfer?
05:57
Sir, everyone wants us to continue that form,
05:59
but how long can that form last,
06:01
how long can you stay with that form,
06:03
no one can say anything,
06:05
but I always tell you,
06:08
the role given to you,
06:10
whether you are satisfied with it or not,
06:12
I always look for that in my role,
06:14
and I always try,
06:16
that in the ICC events,
06:18
even if I get hit a little,
06:20
but if I get a wicket from above,
06:22
it will be better for my team,
06:24
I always think this way.
06:26
Shami bhai,
06:28
in response to your question,
06:30
you said that you don't pay much attention to stats,
06:32
but still,
06:34
in an ICC event,
06:37
you were India's most successful bowler,
06:39
now you have crossed Zaheer Khan,
06:41
in ICC all events,
06:43
what is it,
06:45
I know you have mentioned it,
06:47
but there is something in ICC events,
06:49
where you bowl.
06:51
Sir, my prayers are with you all,
06:53
I just try that,
06:55
how loyally you complete your skills,
06:57
due to injuries,
06:59
like I have cut my 14 months,
07:01
I have done my NCA,
07:03
how loyal are you to that,
07:05
how hungry are you,
07:07
to get that thing,
07:09
that form which you had left,
07:11
how do you get that form,
07:13
or how do you continue that area,
07:15
that rhythm,
07:17
that you should be hungry,
07:19
I always try this,
07:21
even if it takes a little more time,
07:23
I used to spend 8-8 hours in NCA,
07:25
so my effort was that,
07:27
even if you are increasing your days by 30-40%,
07:29
by 10%,
07:31
but with loyalty,
07:34
is your area good,
07:36
is your rhythm good,
07:38
do you have any discomfort,
07:40
I pay attention to those things,
07:42
I don't pay attention to the result,
07:44
I pay attention to today,
07:46
and I always try,
07:48
what the situation demands,
07:50
am I good at that or not.
07:52
Shami,
07:54
this match was almost 100 overs,
07:56
earlier it was 50 overs,
07:58
one ball was short,
08:00
you bowled 10 overs,
08:03
but Gill was batting,
08:05
how much difference did you see,
08:07
when you were on the field,
08:09
had it declined so badly,
08:11
was it sluggish,
08:13
I think you are thinking about Duke,
08:15
it was not like that,
08:17
but I think the wicket was similar,
08:19
but the only difference I saw,
08:21
we had 3 spinners,
08:23
there were 2 spinners,
08:25
if they had 3,
08:27
it could have been a little more difficult,
08:29
but that is their combination,
08:31
this is our combination,
08:33
at the end of the day,
08:35
the wicket was similar,
08:37
and the result is in front of you,
08:39
the one who had good plans,
08:41
executed well, won.
