Jonathan Trott hopeful of rectifying mistakes – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/IJL-Trott-c1576, is confident that his team has learned from their mistakes in the 1st Test match and will fight back strongly in the remainder of the series, starting from tomorrow at Abu Dhabi where the second five-day
game will be played.
Trott, along with wicket-keeper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Prior-c1984 were the only two players to offer some sort of stability in an otherwise disappointing outing for the tourists where they faltered on 192 and 160 respectively. The No.3 batter also remained one of the few batters
not victimized by Pakistani spin wizard, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Saeed-Ajmal-c87859, who took 10 scalps in the match to guide his team to an easy 10 wicket victory.
A consistent run-getter for his team over the past two years, Trott believes that defeats are part and parcel of the game but is confident that the no.1 ranked side can bounce back from such a loss by taking reprieve from the past.
"Being a part of this England team for two or three years, we've had a few losses and we've managed to bounce back in the following game," said Trott."We hope we can do that again - and being close-knit and playing well together and knowing each other's
games so well, it's just a matter of time for us to get back to winning ways."
With the first game ending inside three days, it has allowed the English contingent added time in the nets to rectify their shortcomings against spin on flat tracks. Their head coach, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Flower-c44362, emphasized on judging the length properly after somewhat
tame dismissals against spin.
The first Test was sparked by controversy over the action of Ajmal, after former Poms players suggested of him breaching the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 rules of a 15 degree margin. However, Trott was simply focused on rectifying his own team’s mistakes by working for longer hours
in the nets.
“….We're looking to rectify it in the second game."It was really good and really important (in practice) to move on from the last match. The guys have done that, and really thrown themselves into nets, " added Trott.
