deviate game nice plans seal understand
We do understand it is an important game. Every game is important it will be nice (to seal it). But I do not think we will deviate too much from our plans for this game.
bring case due feels games losing seriously weather
If they are losing a lot of games due to weather then there is some sense to do that. If the PCB seriously feels that they are losing games due to weather they should bring up the case with the ICC.
correct few games hope runs series top
We will like a few more runs in the top order. In the first two games we could have got a few more runs but it is a seven-match series and we hope to correct that.
aim approach definitely game match series win winning
We would definitely want to win the match (for a 4-1 series score). We approach each game with the aim of winning it.
behind catching game lose method nice playing
It was not a nice way to lose a match. We were always behind the D/L Method after Malik and Butt's partnership and we were playing the catching (up) game after that.
confident cricket games good last remaining shown win
We know we have to play well. We have to play one day of good cricket out of the remaining two to win the series. We are confident of doing it. We have shown in the last two games we can play well in all departments.
chance game opportunity
We also see tomorrow's game as an opportunity to give a chance to some of our batsmen and bowlers.
bat confident cricket games good plans playing prefer specific won
We are playing good cricket and have won 11 games when we have chased. We are confident of doing both. We have specific plans when we bat first or chase. I do not think we prefer doing one over another.
bowling game morning three today wickets
His bowling today was fantastic. His three wickets in the morning set the game up for us.
contest easy far game imagination nine reflect shown stretch wickets
They have shown so far they are a very competitive team. It wasn't an easy game by any stretch of the imagination and nine wickets does not reflect the contest between the two sides.
running government games
Administrators are there because of the fans and the cricketers to run this game, so credibility of a game, or a board, or even a government for that matter, is important irrespective of what you do. If you are in public life it is important,
games people fans
There are so many fans and so many people who care deeply about this game, and it is because of these fans that we are who we are as cricketers.
hands games skills
The bowlers I respected or feared or rated were not the ones who gave me lip or stared at me or abused me. More the ones who, at any stage of the game, when had they had the ball in hand, they were going to be at me, and they were going to have the skill and the fitness and the ability to be aggressive.
winning games fields
You don't win or lose the games bcoz of 11 you select. You win or lose with what those 11 do on the field.
