Team looking to learn from their experience claims Prior – Cricket News Update

After their impressive run to the top of the Test ranking last year, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdur-Rehman-c41691, both of whom remained England’s chief tormentor.
Ajmal grabbed the headlines by scooping 24 wickets in the three-match series, while Rehman supported him ably by claiming 19 scalps. Their performances firmly exposed England’s weaknesses against quality spin, a factor which their newest opponents are looking to exploit in the forthcoming series.
The Indian selectors have already made their intentions clear by not including a specialist spinner in the opening two warm-up games, and using http://www.senore.com/Cricket/A-Mishra-c871 sparingly in the final practice match. Prior knows that the only way for his side to prove their mettle against spin is to learn from their past experiences and take that forward against the Men in Blue.
"That series is always in the back of your mind," Prior said about their poor showings against Pakistan. "But, as an international sportsman, you have to be pretty thick skinned and able to move on. I hope we learn from our experiences and mistakes and take them forward into these Test matches."
The 30-year-old further wants his side to draw inspiration from their showings against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 in the last two Ashes series and emulate the same success in the coming weeks. The Poms are searching for their first Test win on Indian soil since 1984.
"I think it's going to be tough. But out of those tough challenges come your great rewards. Winning the Ashes in Australia was a tough challenge but it felt even better at the end of it because it was tough. If it was easy it's not as much fun if you come out on top."
