Quiney happy to live in limbo – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Watson-c2558 may have endangered his chances of getting a place for the Adelaide Test but is happy to be in the national team mix.
"It's a good limbo," Quiney said. "I'd rather be in this limbo than not being in the mix at all. If Shane gets fit, it's going to be beneficial for the team ... but if he doesn't get up and he's still unfit, I feel like the last Test was a bit of a dream and I've got a job to do now."
Quiney’s chances of making an another appearance remain uncertain following the selectors’ decision to include Watson in the 13-man squad for the upcoming Test. The 31-year-old has been nursing a calf injury and a cloud still hangs over his ability to contribute with the ball. The team performance manager , http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Watson-c96326 a place in the national team’s roster.
That enhances Quiney’s prospects of making it to the lineup and not going down like his Victorian teammates in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Chris-Rogers-c1249, as one time baggy green holders.
Despite just making nine with bat, Quiney impressed the selectors with his calm approach both, on and off the field. He further offered a supporting hand with the ball, and his fielding was also his strong point. Rumours further circulate that the selectors may elevate him to the top of the order and exclude http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DA-Warner-c1301 from the lineup as he brings an all-round element to side.
Quiney is simply looking forward to prove his mettle with the bat and help his side get a win under their belt.
"With the bat I was a little bit disappointed," he said. "My job is to make runs and I didn't make runs ... it can turn around pretty quickly. I've only had one innings in Test match cricket. If I get another couple of innings, hopefully I can turn that around."
