Want to do well no matter the team: Skipper Dhawan
Dhawan added, “We were not thinking that we were left behind. If we do things right, the results will keep coming. I want to do well, even for the team I play for, all our bowlers bowled well today.
Miller said – We haven’t played ODI cricket well in a few months.
David Miller, who captained the third match of the series, said it was a tough match. Scorers of 100 runs do not qualify for any match. It was disappointing for the series to end this way. The ball was getting stuck on the pitch and there was the turn. That’s no excuse though. It had been raining for two days and the conditions were tough but we should have faced them.
“We haven’t found our feet in ODI cricket in the last few months,” added Miller. Our T20 team is performing well and in ODIs we have to continue the good run of play.
