Matt Prior inspired by England’s phenomenal performance against India – Cricket News Update
England’s wicket-keeper batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Prior-c1984, says that victory against India in India has given the team added motivation to keep on striving for more glory and has eyed the back-to-back Ashes series to showcase their strengths.
The Poms are riding high from a historic series win against the Men in Blue, their first after a long wait of 28 years. Having initially struggled to deal with the slow and low pitches, the England contingent duly rectified their mistakes to turn the series in their favour.
They lost the opening clash at Ahmedabad by an overwhelming margin but fought back strongly at http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 and Kolkata to take a 2-1 lead before holding nerves in the final clash at Nagpur by earning a share of the spoils. Their victories were a result of all-round contributions by the players.

It helped http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757. However, for Prior, the series’ victory now allows them to target new challenges, foremost being the retention of the Ashes trophy.
The Poms will host Australia in middle of next year, before travelling Down Under the same year. They currently hold the urn after winning the previous two series, the last one being played on Australian soil in 2010.
"It was a phenomenal performance in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750," he said after arriving in Sydney where he will feature for the Thunder’s in the Big Bash League. "Every member of the England team that went there were very, very proud.
"We've got to hang on to that confidence and use it going forward but things turn around very quickly. We've got to make sure that we use that as a platform to really push off and make sure that when we do face http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 we're in a very good place."
