http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MEK-Hussey-c1942 wary of struggling Sehwag – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 batsman Michael Hussey is wary of the swashbuckling Indian opener, as the two outfits gear up to face off in the opening fixture of the World T20 Super Eight
stage, at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, on Friday.
Sehwag’s poor run of form, which started after the 2011 http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World Cup, continued after returning to the competitive cricket in June this year, after a lengthy break. His only notable performance so far this season, a 97-ball 96, had
come in the season opening ODI against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758, at Hambantota.
The ‘Nawab of Najafgarh’ has also failed to make an impact in the ongoing World T20 Championship in Sri Lanka. After scoring 12 and 26 against Sri Lanka and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 respectively in the world cup warm-up matches, the Indian opener fell
cheaply in the tournament opener against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Afghanistan-c745, after scoring just 8 runs.
He was rested for India’s second league match against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Paul-Anthony-Hibbert-c81005 to make a strong comeback in Super Eight stage of the marquee tournament,
commencing today in Pallekele.
“He can miss out a couple of times but we all know that every time he misses out he is closer to the next big one,” Mike Hussey told media reporters at the end of Australia's practice session at the P Sara Oval ground, on Wednesday.
“Normally, when he scores big runs, he scores them quickly so I will never say Sehwag is out of form," insisted the left-handed middle order batsman.
The Australian veteran also hoped that the in-form middle order batsman http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Kohli-c2737 has a bad day in office when the Kangaroos take on the Men in Blue on Friday.
“I’m not exactly sure what our plans are but even if I know I am not going to reveal them,” said the prolific http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Western-Australia-c865 batsman. “He is obviously at a purple patch in the manner that he is playing. Every batsman tends to miss out on some stage and
I hope that he is going to miss out (against us),” he added further.
