We failed to find a way out to win the matches, admits http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sourav-Chandidas-Ganguly-c90746 – Cricket News Update
Disappointed at his side’s eight defeat in a row in the ongoing fifth instalment of the lucrative Indian Premier League, the Pune Warriors http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 skipper, Sourav Ganguly, conceded on Sunday that his side failed to find a “way out to win
the matches”.
Speaking to the media reporters after his side’s 45-run thrashing at the hands of Rajasthan Royals on Sunday, an apparently dejected Ganguly said that the eight-match losing streak was a tough phase for them and hoped it would serve as
a learning experience for the Warriors.
“It’s very hard and very disheartening to go down like this,” said the left-handed top order batsman at the post-match press conference on Sunday, May 13, 2012.
“This has been a very tough phase for us… You lose games in cricket, especially in this format. But the hardest part is we have not found a way out to win the matches. I hope this will serve as a learning experience for us,” http://www.senore.com/Cricket/LN-Onyango-c1844 added
further.
The 39-year-old http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bengal-c771 batsman moved to Pune last season after being snubbed by the Kolkata Knight Riders at the IPL-4 players auction. This year, the Pune selectors appointed him as the captain of the Warriors, after regular skipper
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yuvraj-Singh-c98364 was ruled out of the tournament with a malignant lung tumour. After getting off to a decent start, winning three of their first four games, the Warriors lost their head and could win only one game in their next 11 outings. Sunday’s 45-run defeat
at the hands of Royals was their eighth humiliation on the trot.
In their last night’s match against the Royals, little known http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Warriors-c861 top order removing all of their top four batsmen, including hat-trick.
“I have never seen Chandila before,” said Ganguly, who was stumped out off Chandila. “After playing a couple of deliveries, I thought that his deliveries are a bit slow in the air. But that’s what this format is... You never know who
stands up and performs. He had a wonderful today,’ he added further.
The Warriors will play their last game of the season against Kolkata Knight Riders at home on Saturday, May 19, 2012.
