It would be interesting to watch who Jasprit Bumrah will have as a new ball partner in the match against Pakistan on Saturday.
In the ODI series against Australia in March of this year, Shami and Mohammed Siraj shared the new ball in Bumrah's absence. Now after Bumrah is back it will be interesting to see the bowling combinations of Indian team.
"I don't have any hesitancy to bowl with the new ball or the old ball. I don't have an ego like that. All three of us (Bumrah, Shami and Siraj) are bowling very well, so it depends on the management on who will play," Shami told Star Sports ahead of Asia Cup.
"Depends on whether I have the new ball or whether the team requires me at any stage during the match, I am always on," said India's best exponent of swing bowling in current times.
Shami is not overly particular about the form and colour of the ball as someone who has taken 162 wickets from 90 matches at an economy rate of 5.60.
"There is too much talk about the white ball or red ball, if you bowl in the right areas I don't think that there is any difficulty in any ball," said the Bengal speedster.
"There is only one goal, to go and give 100 percent, the result will come running to us if we give our 100%. So it is very important to focus and execute, it's a very simple plan."
Bumrah's presence will certainly boost the team's morale ahead of a big event like World Cup.
"For a long time we didn't have Jassi (Bumrah), so we felt the loss of a good player like him. You sometimes feel like ‘I wish this player was there', to make your combination set.
"So having Jassi, especially in the white-ball format, has made our bowling very strong. He's looking fit and he's playing well, hopefully, we have a good Asia Cup."
Shami, who last played a white ball game in March and wants to get back on track right away against Pakistan, gained strongly from the camp at Alur, Bengaluru before the Asia Cup.
"For big games, there is always preparation as we have practised in the training camp. I don't think we have to analyze too much into the situation, we have the skill and the bowling line-up, so we don't have to think too much.
"But I have to say one thing, whenever One-day matches come, there has to be focus. So to be focused and to have proper planning."
