India fast bowler Mohammed Shami is in good rhythm after performing well in the Indian Premier League (IPL) so he can prepare for the big Test series against Australia without any pressure. Shami had a good IPL season, taking 20 wickets for Kings XI Punjab. It also included a five-run brilliant defense against the Mumbai Indians in a ‘double super over’. Shami told BCCI dot com on Saturday that my performance against Kings XI Punjab in the IPL has given me a lot of confidence and put me in the right position.

Shami feels that performing well in the IPL has eased the pressure on him. “The biggest advantage is that I can now prepare for the next series without any pressure,” he said. There is no pressure on me. I feel very comfortable at the moment. “I’ve done a lot of work on my bowling and my fitness at Lockdown,” he said. I knew IPL had to be organized and I was preparing myself for it.

Test matches have been his priority on this tour and he has been working hard during the training sessions for the past one week. He said the tour will be a long one, starting with white ball cricket and then a Pink and Red Ball test. My focus is always cricket on the red ball and I work on my length and seam movement.
