http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJ-Hussey-c1380 confident ahead of tough series – Cricket News Roundup – Part 2 – June 27, 2012
David Hussey, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, claiming that the quality in the middle-order will help his side to prosper over a strong English bowling line-up.
The Aussies have been in hot form during their warm-up games, where they won both their matches by convincing margins with the last victory coming against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Essex-c783, whom they inflicted a heavy 179-run defeat after posting a mammoth 313 on the board.
With the first ODI being played at Lord’s on 29, Hussey was clearly impressed with the team’s performance and was now looking forward to facing the English contingent.
“We have talked about taking the opportunities in the middle order, going on about the English bowling attack but it's up to the middle order to really set in stone and make some big targets for our bowlers to defend or chase down targets,” he said.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/JDP-Oram-c1681, feels that his side must come out all guns blazing against West Indies, despite being away from International cricket for three months.
The Kiwis’ last played International cricket on home soil in March where they were convincingly beaten by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760.
''The key now is turning that fitness into match performances and I think that's always the hard thing,'' said the opener.
Sri Lankan skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Hafeez-c76898’s stance of making the use of Decision Review System mandatory for all international matches.
Following the first Test defeat to the Lankan http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808, Hafeez made it clear that the International Cricket Council must be vigilant in their use of the technology which in turn will reduce umpiring errors after watching his side suffer against a couple of rough decisions.
Similar views are now been expressed by Jayawardene, who feels that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 must facilitate boards rather than leaving it to them to decide whether to use DRS or not.
"It might not be 100 percent technology, but if we can use it to get the maximum number of correct decisions, it will help the umpires as well," said Jayawardene.
