After the 2016 series Shan went away and worked hard on his game. Subsequently he went on to break all first class records last season in Pakistan scoring endless amount of runs. Just before the pre season camp for the Endland tour 2018 Shan injured his knee whilst training for the PSL, having missed the camp he missed the tour. Shan went back to Pakistan and scored more runs in all formats and then played in the A team against the Lions doing the same again.
He is quality both on and off the field and deserves everything he goes in to achieve in the game.
