Cricket News in Brief – December 04, 2012 – Part 1
India’s discarded left-arm pacer http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Irfan-Pathan-c1601 is raring to make a permanent comeback in the national team after being left out for nearly two years due to dip in form and pace.
However, the pacer in an interview admitted that he was never an all out fast bowler and is now aware of his limitations as a cricketer.
“I was never an out and out pace bowler. I now know my limitations after all the problems I went through. I am now concentrating more on my limitations because at the end of the day what is important is performance," said Pathan.
The all-rounder, who was not selected for India’s tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746, hopes his team will bounce back and beat the Aussies in their own backyard after India went down in the first Test.
On Tuesday, January 03, 2011 Kolkata Knight Riders named http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Trevor-Harley-Bayliss-c94335 as their head coach for the fifth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Bayliss will take charge from Dev Whatmore, who is expected to be named as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755’s new head coach in the coming days.
A media release by KKR said, “We are pleased to welcome Trevor Bayliss as our head coach. With his rich experience, very successful track record and knowledge of the conditions in the sub continent, we believe he is the right person to take KKR to the next level of performance."
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Tendulkar-c2556 is under tremendous pressure because of his highly anticipated 100th century.
“Everyone's supporting Sachin. It's not putting pressure on the rest of the side. You have got to ask http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Chinnadupargea-Sachin-c50607 if it is putting pressure on himself,” said Fletcher.
Sachin, who has failed to score the notorious century - time and time again - is believed to be under pressure which is effecting his performance.
India are currently one down in the four-Test series against Australia and the Men in Blue desperately want Sachin to regain form in order to avoid a Test debacle similar to the series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 this summer, where the World Champions lost all four matches to the Poms.
