“Over the last few years it was a question of who will bowl in the end overs”, the wicketkeeper-batsman said at a news conference.
India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni said on Tuesday that having bowlers specifically for the final stages of a match has contributed to his team winning 10 of 11 games in the run-up to the World Twenty20. “I am really quite happy with the progress”, Dhoni said.
“I have always felt good about my batting but it is tough for me to play more than 20 deliveries unless I promote myself”.
India blanked Australia in their own backyard, beat Sri Lanka at home before capturing the Asia Cup in Bangladesh.
“Frankly it’s the hard to remember the 2011 World Cup”.
“As far as this preparation is concerned we have had the flawless scenario”.
“We won the Australia series, the bilateral series with Sri Lanka, than winning a tournament like Asia Cup, we are looking right on track”. Each game is important, slow and steady is the key. “I have learnt a lot from my seniors and that has helped me in becoming a better player”. “I am ready for the challenges”, Dhoni said preferring keep himself as the team’s crisis resolver.
“The job profile of a finisher is different, one needs to think twice before hitting a big shot because there are not many batsmen left. We have to worry about the preparations of the players”, he said. The job becomes easy.
The Indian skipper, however, said they are not thinking too far but it’s about be in the top of the game in the knockouts.
