Gilchrist supports Bhargav Bhatt
Skipper of Kings XI Punjab, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Adam-Gilchrist-c918, has persisted Bhargav Bhatt will play against the Chennai Supper Kings in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at Mohali.
The left-arm spinner did not get a chance to bat and could not get a single over in a convincing loss to the Pune Warriors, but Gilchrist is confident about Bhatt against the defending Champions.
Gilchrist said that they had Bhatt in the team against Pune, but the situation and the number of runs they had did not permit him to dig up into the match. They are confident that he will be able to perform exceptionally well for them.
Asked whether Bhatt will be arranged in a restrained or wicket-taking role, Gilchrist persisted that the match conditions and circumstances will state how and when the young blood will be needed in the match.
"It goes hand-in-hand. If you are containing runs you are more likely to get wickets. But there will be times and conditions where a bowler will come on and the best way to stop runs is to take wickets", he added.
The Mohali-raised unit is arguably the slightest star studded franchise on the display across the T20 tournament, with Australian Gilchrist starring in a team that comprises of players such as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ryan-McLaren-c87323.
"Our team is certainly not a star-studded line-up compared to some other teams around. That's not something that bothers me. We are going to come around, work hard and really play to our best to be in the competition", said the veteran wicketkeeper-batsman.
Gilchrist was suspicious about the Kings XI http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Punjab-c833’s pace attack, which comprises of the Kiwis pacer Tim Southee and the Proteas fast bowler, Albie Morkel, who arranged the foundation splendidly for the Super Kings’ recent victory over Kolkata Night Riders.
 
"There's no doubt bowlers in general have progressed as T20 has evolved. They have come out smarter and are able to execute their deliveries in a more accurate manner. There really shouldn't be too many times that you are bowled out in 20 overs. We are talking
about batting plans and having wickets in hand", he concluded.
