We have a never say die attitude and it will take us a long way asserts Darren Sammy – Cricket News Update
India are off to a winning start in the five match One-Day International (ODI) series against the West Indies. The match which was played at Barabati Stadium, Cuttack, on Tuesday, November 29, saw the hosts steal a one wicket victory
over the tourists.
West Indian skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJG-Sammy-c1382, was upbeat despite the loss. The all-rounder reckons that his players are showing great character and if they continue on this same path, good fortune will follow them.
“Every loss is disappointing but the coach always tells us to create opportunities and we have been doing that. We have a never say die attitude and it will take us a long way,” said the West Indian skipper.
The Caribbean team is creating chances out of nowhere and this is what pleases Sammy the most.
Bowling is the strong point for West Indian team, as their batting has been unpredictable. Even at Cuttack it was the bowlers who gave up a valiant effort to take the match down to the wire.
Commending his bowling unit for their hard work, Sammy said, “Today we again fell short of the finish line. We all knew we didn't bat as well as we should have but we fought hard. The bowlers gave us a very good start and we fought
all the way down to the wire. When you look back at the game, we come up with a lot of things which we could have done differently.”
