I don't need Swann to drive me to perform says Ashwin – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/GP-Swann-c1501 after his English counterpart claimed that there is no mystery about the Indian spinners.
The mind games have already started between two of cricket’s premier powerhouses as they look to settle the score in the upcoming four-match Test series.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747.
They further suffered an embarrassing 3-0 defeat earlier in the year against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 and earned
a hard fought 1-1 result in the two-match series.
Their improved showings against the Lankans were largely attributed to the fact that their opponents did not have that mystery element in their bowling repertoire. Swann, who had to fly back home to spend time with his ill daughter, was convinced that his
batters will be able to put on a good show against the Indian spinners, who are traditional and orthodox.
Ashwin, who is expected to lead the spin duties, is not fazed by Swann’s pre-match comments, claiming that it’s not essential for a spinner to fill that mystery bill in order to take wickets.
 “I don't need to comment on what Swann has said. We'd rather demonstrate our wiles and skill on the field. I don't subscribe to all these theories as ultimately your performance on the field counts, rest everything is inconsequential. One doesn't necessarily
have to be a 'mystery' spinner to take wickets,” Ashwin said while talking to Cricketnext.
“I don't need Swann to drive me to perform. Playing for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 and winning the matches for the country are the biggest motivation. Both of us will try to perform to the best of our abilities and I hope it'll make for some cracking moments,” Ashwin, who has
taken 49 Tests wickets at 26.63 so far, added.
The first Test starts from November 15 at Ahmedabad.
