India in England 2011 - Tim Bresnan high on confidence after startling performances at Trent Bridge and Edgbaston – Cricket News Update
The England fast bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 on the opening day of the third Test, currently underway at the Edgbaston, and has said that he does not see any reason not to be high on confidence after back
to back star performances with the ball.
The 26-year-old Yorkshire pacer returned with figures of 4 for 62 from 20 overs, as Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led India side was rolled over for a meager 224 runs in their first innings, thanks to Dhoni’s daring 77, as the tourists managed to get past the
200 figure.
"Who wouldn't be full of confidence after getting a five-for then four-for in Test match cricket?" was Bresnan’s question while talking to the media reporters at the close of Day one at Edgbaston.
The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013’s convincing 319-run win in the second innings. The all-rounder
recorded his career best bowling figures of 5 for 48 from 12 overs after scoring a 118-ball 90 in the second innings.
The on-tour Indian batting line-up has been struggling against the roaring English pace attack right through the start of the series and are currently trailing the hosts 0-2 in the four-match series.
Before the series, it was being anticipated that England would struggle to claim 20 wickets in any Test of the series but once the series kick-started at Lord’s, the world-class Indian line-up was seen struggling against the three-pronged English pace
attack, featuring Tim Bresnan, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SCJ-Broad-c2465.
Bresnan down played the perception that Dhoni’s batsmen are struggling with their form and said that the English attack bowled exceptionally well in the series.
"They've not really got themselves out. We've bowled really well and stuck to our plans," said the Yorkshire pacer. "It's not like they're inventing ways to get out, put it that way," he added further.
After rolling India over for 224 in their first innings, England were 84 without loss at stumps on Day one at Edgbaston. Captain http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AN-Cook-c1026 was playing at 27.
An England win at Edgbaston would not only decide the series in Poms’ favour but also earn the hosts the top spot on ICC's Test rankings table.
