England have decided to play Kieswetter down the order to allow all-rounder http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KP-Pietersen-c1806 to open the innings for the Poms.
On the other hand, Kieswetter is quite happy with the latest arrangement and feels he will rise to the occasion as he was a middle-order batsman before making his international debut.
"It's a new role for me, but when I first started playing professional cricket for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Somerset-c843 I batted in the middle order," said Kieswetter.
On Wednesday, February 08, 2012 India's legendary batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sunil-Manohar-Gavaskar-c91863, was inducted in International Cricket Council’s (ICC’s) Hall of Fame.
Gavaskar represented http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 for 16 years, where he played 125 Tests and 108 One Day Internationals (ODIs).
Speaking after receiving the honour, the mild-mannered batsman said, “It is a huge honour because it is the peers in the game who decide who is going to be inducted into the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Cricket Hall of Fame.”
According to England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), pacer Chris Tremlett has undergone a back surgery after he injured his back and had to come home during England’s Test series against Pakistan in the UAE.
Tremlett played only the first Test against Pakistan, where he went wicket less and was then recalled after a recurring back injury.
According to sources, his rehabilitation process will be supervised by England medical team, while the date for his return to cricket will be announced later.
Australian skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Queensland-c834 has the potential to become a Test player.
It is believed that Australian selectors are keen to watch http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758.
The youngster will either be included in place of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJ-Hussey-c1380.
"I think he's a very gifted player, he's a good fielder and very good player, not just in one-day cricket, but I think he's got the potential to play Test cricket as well in the future," http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Clarke-c51120 said.
