http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013’s Test captain, Andrew Strauss is confident that he will regain his lost form in the all-important series against India, which is the number one ranked Test team of the world.
The left-handed opener had a torrid time against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 in the recently concluded series as he just managed to score 27 runs in three Test matches. However, he is lucky not to have faced a lot of criticism in the English media as the home team won the series under his captaincy.
The English captain believes that he is now feeling fresh once again as he took some time off after the series against the Islanders and said that he is raring to take on the world champions.
Strauss said, "It's been a bit of time to iron out one or two things technically and also to refresh in time for the India series and to make sure I'm ready to go. I had one chance against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gloucestershire-c785 and it was one of those frustrating games that kind of happens.”
Strauss retired from limited overs cricket after the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Cricket World Cup 2011, where his team failed to make an impression. Now the left hander just wants to focus on the longer version of the sport, which in his opinion is the highest stage of cricket.
After his retirement, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 twice in Ashes 2009 and 2010-11.
Strauss struggled against the Sri Lankan left-arm medium pacer, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Uda-Walawwe-Mahim-Bandaralage-Chanaka-Asanka-Welegedara-c94538, on a number of occasions. However, the left-handed opener believes that he is equally good against the left-armers and the right-armers.
The English captain added that he will be successful in International cricket once again if he applies himself properly at the crease.
"In terms of facing left-armers, I've looked at it but I don't think there is anything massively wrong. It's about choosing which balls to play and which ones to leave and that sort of stuff. I've had a fair amount of success against left-armers as well," he added.
