India http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Steven-Mullaney-c2584 Rohit Sharma for third Test – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760. The squad for final Test was revealed on Thursday, November 17, 2011.
The right-hander has been drafted in the roster in place of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yuvraj-Singh-c98364, who failed to impress despite receiving numerous chances.
Sharma has been tagged as a specialist batsman for limited over cricket. Despite being part of Indian outfits for four years, the personified striker has not played a single Test match for the Men in Blue.
It was long time coming for Sharma, and the 24-year-old believes that it is time for him to make his mark in the longest version of the game.
“The time has come for me to play Test cricket now. I am concentrating more on my game, on my skills and focusing a lot on my temperament and all that stuff which is required when you play Test cricket. I have been working on that
and hopefully it will come out in a positive way and I will be able to manage all these things very nicely,” claimed Sharma.
Yuvraj hasn’t been in best of forms lately. Only 66 runs came from the bat of Yuvraj in three innings against the West Indies. On the other hand, Sharma has been slicing opposition bowlers with his blade. The 24-year-old piled
a lot of runs in Ranji Trophy tournament and hence fought his way into the final-15.
Sharma has scored two hundreds from two matches in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kumar-Shri-Ranjitsinhji-c71870 Trophy. The 24-year-old wants to carry on and score more tons.
Asserting that his appetite for runs will never fill, Sharma said, “I want to make it three in three; that will be my goal. The hunger never stops; as long as you are playing cricket you need to keep getting runs. The biggest example
is http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Tendulkar-c2556; you can look at him and see his hunger. Even after getting 15,000 Test runs he still wants to carry on.”
