The West Indian opening batsman, Chris Gayle, is geared up for the upcoming One Day International (ODI) series against New Zealand and hopes to win the series for his team.
The left-handed batsman returned to international cricket in the recently concluded tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 and has looked in great touch. The former Caribbean captain was named as the Player of the Series for his consecutive half-centuries in the T20s against the
Black Caps at Florida.
The first match of the ODI series is going to commence today at Jamaica and the home team look to be the clear favourites because of their superiority in both departments of the game.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 have shown immense fighting spirit since the last 14 months, although they do not have the results to show for it. However, Gayle is looking at the New Zealand series as a chance to turn the tables.
The opening batsman is of the opinion that his side will have to start the series in an emphatic fashion, so that they can carry forward the momentum in the remainder of the matches.
Talking about playing at his hometown, Jamaica, the destructive left-hander expressed that he would love to play a big knock in a ground where he grew up playing the sport.
Gayle said, “The start to this series is very important. From a personal point of view, I want to do well in my home town. I will just look at it as another game. I will look to give the team a good start.”
Of late, Gayle has been taking time to get going and plays a lot of dot balls at the start of the innings before firing up. The lanky batsman said that with the passage of time, he has learnt to change gears at different stages of the innings.
"I don't know why that has been happening. If I get a bad ball early, that can give me the momentum to be more attacking. If that doesn't happen, you had to adapt to the situation, get the feel and know what the ball is doing. Sometimes as a batsman, things
go your way from ball one," he added.
