Daniell Vettori still positive after the twin fiasco
New Zealand, famous for their seesaw performances is currently suffering a debacle with 11 straight losses to their name. Despite the gloomy situation, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754 cricket officials announced and showed confidence in their captain
Daniel Vettori. The board backed up the left arm spinner and said that a proper review of the tours and reasons to the defeat would be figured out. However, they believe captaincy is not the issue, and that Vettori is the right man to lead the Kiwis.
Vettori himself confessed that the series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 was the worst tour he ever had. Commenting on his leadership he said “there was no need for a new leader. I enjoy doing the job.” Other members on the board emphasized that
it is high time in the country to promote cricket at a grass roots level. He further claimed that the team members are happy with his leading abilities, however, he fears that he might not be as popular among the fans as he used to be.
As a solution, Vettori said that he thinks he needs to improve his own performance and that the senior players on the side should step up and take the challenge of the revival of the team. To give his best chance to perform in
the future, he has opted not to play in ongoing Twenty20 local tournament. Daniel Vettori led the spinning attack against India and bowled more than 200 overs during the Test series. He reported a sore back after the Test series. After returning to New Zealand
from India, he said that "the shoulder is okay, I have just got a few issues with the back from the Test matches.”
After the performances the Kiwis gave, and just before the World Cup, they have to regain their lost credibility against visitors http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 in the series starting in December. Pakistan is due to play 3 Twenty20 internationals, two
Test matches and 6 One Day internationals. Pakistan cricket in the last couple of years has faced a lot of controversies off the field. This series is equally important for both cricketing nations. Daniel Vettori will be thinking to get back into form so that
he can mark something special for his team and the fate of New Zealand cricket in the 2011 World Cup.
