Cook urges teammates to be at their best if they are to avoid 3-0 humiliation
The one-day captain of England, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AN-Cook-c1026 has urged his side to be at its absolute best if they are to avoid a 3-0 humiliation at the hands of Pakistan.
England, the world number one Test side, have lost the opening two Tests of the three-match series comprehensively and is on the verge of a 3-0 series whitewash with the third and final Test of the series underway at the Dubai International Stadium, Dubai
since February 3, 2012.
In the ongoing third Test, startling centuries from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Azhar-Ali-c46890 has put Pakistan in a commanding position as Pakistan seems well on course to set a daunting target for the Poms.
Given the poor form of England in the low scoring series so far, where they have managed to get past 200 runs just once, it seems that Strauss’ men would once again struggle against the intimidating spin attack of Pakistan, which includes the likes of Saeed
Ajmal and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdur-Rehman-c41691.
Cook, the 27-year-old left-handed opening batsman, urged the side to fight hard to avoid a 3-0 series humiliation at the hands of Pakistan, something that has never happened in the history of England-Pakistan cricketing rivalry.
"We all know we're a very long way behind in this game," said Cook speaking to the media reporters on Saturday. "But if we sit here and say 'well, we've lost this game already' then we might as well give http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 victory right now.
If we're thinking that in our dressing-room, we might as well just not bother turning up.”
"It will take some serious guts to drag ourselves out of this. But there are some bloody good players in that dressing-room, and I hope we can stand up. Anything is possible, but it's going to take a lot of mental toughness to deliver
it," the added further.
The Test series will be followed by four One Day Internationals and a three-match T20 international series. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 will announce a changed side for the limited overs leg of the tour. It is expected the squad will be announced by
the end of the ongoing third Test.
