Australia’s injured strike bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RJ-Harris-c2330, is confident about his team’s ability to thump Sri Lanka in third and the final Test, starting from Friday, September 16, 2011 at Colombo.
The Kangaroos are currently leading the three-match competition 1-0 and Harris is certain that his side will seal the series by a margin of two games.
He argued that since every member of the Aussie troop has been giving his best, there is no reason why the tourists will not be able to win the final Test.
"I think we're batting well. We've been bowling well as a group. I know the guys who haven't been playing have been in the nets every day working their butts off, they're ready to go if they're needed," Harris was quoted by Fox Sports, as saying.
Yet, he was hesitant to accept that his teammates must not take the islanders lightly, as the home side has the ability to bounce back. On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TM-Dilshan-c2691 and company is sharpening their teeth in a bid to crush the Aussies in the ultimate
battle, as they are eyeing a win to level the series.
The 31-year-old pacer, who will miss the third Test due to a hamstring strain, played a key role in his side’s fantastic performance in the last two matches – nabbing 11 wickets in four innings.
While Harris was ruled out of the final clash, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RT-Ponting-c2377 made his way back to the crew after missing the last match following the birth of his child in Australia.
Despite his exclusion, Harris insisted that the players will go on with the same momentum and produce an equally outstanding performance.
"Disappointing where we've just come from in Kandy, but I think, particularly as a bowling group, we've put Sri Lanka under pressure and tied down their runs. In those periods we've taken wickets to keep the pressure on them so pretty confident we can continue
that," claimed the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-South-Wales-c823 paceman who is hopeful of regaining his hundred percent fitness very soon.
