Ravi Shastri backs Indian cricketers to play 3rd Test with positive attitude – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ravishankar-Jayadritha-Shastri-c84254, the former Indian captain, has admonished Team India to walk into the Edgbaston cricket stadium for their 3rd high-voltage Test against England with a positive outlook and play with their backs to the wall as the match is set to
determine their position in the International Test rankings. He expects the senior players and especially http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Sehwag-c2739, the maverick opener, to take the unkind fate away from their team.
The two virtuoso cricketing nations of the world are going to start the 3rd npower Test of the series of four matches today, August 10. This is a make-or-break game for the Indians who are in must-win situation as the defeat will deprive them
of the world No 1 Test slot, because they have already lost the first two Tests.
Shastri opines that this tough situation may unearth the occult talent of the tourists as they have no other option except burning the boats and embarking upon the mighty Poms to wrest a much-needed victory from them.
Talking to the media, Shastri said, “They will have to think positive because sometimes when your back is to the wall, something special can come out from somebody in the side. Someone will have to step up to the play. It’s not impossible, especially if
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 go for the kill and leave you a track that has a bit of juice in it; you never know.”
Like all other Indians, Shastri has also pinned a lot of hopes with Sehwag, who has rejoined the team after a long break from International cricket due to his shoulder injury, as the hard hitting opener is being considered as the saviour of the sinking boat
of the Men in Blue.
He also argues that the senior players, especially the batsmen, should realise the intensity of the situation and shoulder the responsibility to perk their side up.
He told, “It’s [a win] not beyond http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750; they have had their backs to the wall many times in the past but it is their batting that will have to rise to the occasion. The big boys will have to fire.”
Shastri is also in Birmingham to hold his position in the commentary box during the match.
