http://www.senore.com/Cricket/PP-Ojha-c2198 wants to become the leader of the attack – Cricket News Update
After a triumphant return to the Indian Test team, Pragyan Ojha has only one goal in mind – to become the leader of the attack.
However, the 25-year-old wants to keep things simple and does not feel the need to pressurize himself after a fine piece of bowling display in the opening five-day game against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760.
With an important series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 to follow, the only thing on the spinners mind is to perform well in the ongoing Test series, which will eventually help him to pursue a long live desire of leading the spin department for the Men In Blue.
His comeback has been well on track after he returned the favour shown by the selectors by performing impeccably, and grabbing a 6-wicket haul to kick start his career, which had been brought to a halt for the past 12 months.
While many believe that the ongoing home series will be a perfect blessing for the Men In Blue players to gear up for the tough challenge of Down Under, Ojha wants to concentrate on the primary task ahead, which will eventually lead him to fulfill his long-term
goal.
In an interview, referring to the importance of the Australian tour he commented, “It is certainly. It's such a big series. But I am concentrating on this one at the moment. I still have to continue what I did in the first Test. I cannot start to feel easy
just because I've bagged a six-wicket haul. I don't want to complicate my head or my bowling. I have a simple goal: become one of the leaders of the attack and shoulder responsibility,” said Ojha.
The Indian team will lock horns with the Kangaroo contingent in 4 Test matches, 2 T20s, and a Commonwealth Bank series, which also involves http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758.
After a poor show in their last away tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, the sub-continent giants will be hoping to fare better on pitches, which will offer pace and bounce.
As for Ojha, he will certainly want to be a part of the squad and will be looking to perform well in the remaining home matches against the Caribbean outfit to stake a permanent claim in the team.
