Zaheer Khan is happy to be back in Team http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 - Cricket News Update
Indian spearhead http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Z-Khan-c98379, said he was happy to find himself back into the national team frame after injury forced him out of the Asia Cup in March.
The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746, had to undergo surgical treatment to treat his ankle niggles and
hamstring problems.
“Being a fast bowler and the way my whole career has gone, often marred by injuries, I just want to do all the right things,” said Khan.
However, the player managed to represent Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) season Five and said that he was completely fit for the national duty.
The 33-year-old has recently been selected in a 15-man squad for the five-match series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758, last appearing for the Men in Blue back in February during the CB series in Australia.
“I am focusing on my bowling fitness as the season is going to be long. Right now the focus will be on the Sri Lanka (ODI) series,” the left-arm bowler said.
Khan is his country’s most successful pace man since http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kapil-Dev-c70234, and has remained the mainstay of Indian bowling attack since his debut in 2000. In 83 Tests, he has bagged 288 wickets at an average of 31.78, while in 195 One Day Internationals (ODIs) he has
taken 278 scalps at 29.03 - the most ODI dismissals by any Indian pace bowler.
The RCB bowler was also keen on taking part in the forthcoming 2012-2013 domestic season of the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kumar-Shri-Ranjitsinhji-c71870 Trophy, hoping to contribute in a mentoring role.
“There is enough talent in the country and you have the Ranji Trophy to back it. They have to perform and come up. Whenever I get an opportunity — I make sure I contribute in whichever way possible. I have been enjoying that (mentoring) role,” the Indian
pace man said.
India has a packed cricketing calendar with home series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World T20 Championship in September and the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka which is due to start from July 21.
