http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 to show more desire to play – Cricket News Update
More news comes from the ongoing Test fixture at the Edgbaston arena, Birmingham, where http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 pacer Tim Bresnan recently stated that the Indian tourists ‘should go home if they don’t want to be play’.
The star bowler from the ongoing third Test match, who secured a notable 4 wickets haul on the game’s opening session, asked the Indian visitors to show more desire and interest to play on the field and should not be disrupted with the weather conditions.
The statement from the English spearhead came following a sluggish run by the Indian side after the hosts went on to dominate the Test champions through an impressive and ongoing 456/3 batting session; which came complements to the much drastic fielding
display by the Indian players who dropped off several potent catches on the second day of the fixture.
However, it was not only Bresnan that cited India’s lack of desire to play on the field, but cricket experts http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Michael-Anthony-Holding-c75756 also criticised the Indians for their sluggish on-field performance at the Edgbaston arena.
“I have said this before and I would say it again, that it appears that Indian players look disinterested in Test cricket, it seems that Test cricket is just something that they have to do and not something that they have to concentrate on,” stated Holding,
adding that the English are surely expected to win since the Indians are just waiting to lose.
On the other hand, former Indian veteran Sunil Gavaskar stated that the team is going through motions and are not trying hard enough on the field, slamming some players and criticising them for giving an impression that they don’t care as well as the team’s
unprofessional fielding.
As for Bresnan, the player’s remarks about the Indian side’s performance came following the seamer disagreed with the team’s coach http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Duncan-Andrew-Gwynne-Fletcher-c54742 who blamed the Edgbaston pitch for creating a lot of swing, which it has never produced before. While Bresnan
differed from the former English coach stating that the pitches were playing all right.
The English hosts currently hold an exceptional 2-0 lead on the series and are currently delivering a superb performance on the Edgbaston pitch.
