Steven Finn's perfromance against D Y Patil Academy XI brightens his chances of a return – Cricket News Update
After taking four wickets for 50 runs against D Y Patil Academy XI in England’s Performance Programme game on the first day, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ST-Finn-c2566 is most likely to return into the English side for the 3rd Test, scheduled for next week in Kolkata.
Missing the first two games against India due to thigh strain, Finn showed great signs of recovery in the warm up game, working up significant pace. If he makes through the rest of the game fully fit, he will be set to return in the next encounter against
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750.
The only thing Finn has to prove is his fitness, as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808 squad there's a good chance he might play in Kolkata, without a
doubt. He's a special talent and has the pace we probably need for this place. We'd like to get him in the team.”
On the contrary, Saker felt that young http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SCJ-Broad-c2465 has not been able to adjust to the conditions in the past two games.
“There's a little bit of an issue, there's no doubt about it, He hasn't bowled as we would have liked, and he'd be the first to admit that. He's not the first bowler to come over here and find it hard.”
After facing a terrible defeat in the first game against India at Ahmadabad, the English side fought back strongly in the second match in Mumbai, where they were able to secure a 10-wicket win courtesy the spinners who ripped apart the Indian batting for
a low total in the second innings.
Believing that going with two spinners in the side was the right call, Saker hinted at following the same strategy for the upcoming game at Kolkata next week. With Finn getting his fitness back, Broad is most likely to be replaced considering his poor form.
