Ashwin to unleash his own mystery delivery – Cricket News Update
India’s leading spinner, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Ashwin-c2228, is looking forward to unleash his own mystery delivery when he takes on England in the upcoming four-match Test series.
"I have been working on that ball for some time now. I might just use it in this series," Ashwin told Times of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750.
Many have labeled the upcoming series as a spin test for the touring Poms, who have generally struggled to cope with quality spinners. Their frailties were easily exploited by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdur-Rehman-c41691 helped their side complete an impressive whitewash in the three-match Test series.
Nonetheless, it did not deter http://www.senore.com/Cricket/GP-Swann-c1501, from claiming that their batsman are in a better position to cope with the Indian spinners, who lack the mystery element.
In a recent interview to Cricketnext, Ashwin played down any such concerns by adding that one does not necessarily need to have a mystery ball in order to take wickets. The player has been in impressive touch of late, where he was named the Player of the Series during the national team’s last home Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754. In a short career so far, the player has already taken 49 wickets at 26.63.
Ashwin is confident of using his mystery ball to good effect against a formidable Poms batting lineup, which includes http://www.senore.com/Cricket/IJL-Trott-c1576.
"I am confident, but at the same time I'm a little apprehensive too. All this while, I thought I was getting there, but a lot of work needed to be done. But at the moment, the progress is a little more satisfactory," he says.
"They have an extraordinary batting line-up which has done exceptionally in the last two or three years. You need to respect that. I think we're well prepared to face them at home," says Ashwin.
