In the teams’ last meeting at Pallekele, Shah picked 3-36 as India were bowled out for 266. Along with Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf, Shah has established himself as a crucial member of the fiery pace troika.
"As the expectations rise, you need to work even harder, because the pressure goes up. We toured Sri Lanka recently and played a series against Afghanistan here, so we are used to the conditions.
