Familiarity with Indian players will not affect the competitiveness on field reckons David Warner – Cricket News Update
After the conclusion of the Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754, Australian players have set all their focus towards the upcoming series against India.
The Men in Blue last toured Australia in 2007, back then there was a lot of bad blood between the players of both teams. But the relationships have changed drastically, and now, because of taking part in the Indian Premier League (IPL), players are familiar with each other.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DA-Warner-c1301, the Australian batsman, feels that the affiliation with Indian players will not affect the competiveness of Aussie cricketers, when they come out to play.
Warner said, “That some of us have played in DLF Indian Premier League over the last four years will surely help the players understand one another better but I don't think that this familiarity will take the edge away when we are on the field.”
The fans are eagerly waiting for the much hyped series between the two countries. However, there were couple of incidents that took place in India’s last excursion that were against the spirit of game. Amongst the most serious issue that nearly forced India to abandon the series was the ban imposed on http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Symonds-c44611 claimed that the off-spinner had racially abused him.
Warner, who plays for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Thomas-George-Burrows-c93472hat high such incidents take place.
The opening batsman said, “Lots of things were going on when http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 the last time in 2007-08 but that is what makes cricket. Everyone likes to play very seriously and that alone should ensure that nothing changes the attitude on the field.”
India hasn’t won a single Test series in Australia, but the tourists, under the leadership of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028, look set to create history this time around. The two cricketing giants clash in the first Test match of the series at Melbourne Cricket Ground on Boxing Day.
