Shamsi on how the tour to the West Indies and Ireland has taken its toll on the squad BraMahlatse

The Proteas have been away from home for almost two months starting in the West Indies where they arrived on 1 June to play two Tests in St Lucia and five T20s in Grenada.

“I am one of the guys who probably had the tour that I would have liked but still there is that human element with things happening back home and a lot of us not having seen our children‚ our spouses and families for almost two months‚” said Shamsi who claimed five wickets in the ODI series against Ireland and has already claimed four scalps in the T20s with two to go.

Shamsi said though they are homesick on long tours‚ they are fully aware of their responsibilities of performing on the training pitch and during matches. Shamsi also claimed seven wickets in five innings during the T20 series against the West Indies but he doesn’t believe he is playing at his best.
