Mickey Arthur disappointed with bowlers ? Cricket News Update
Expressing disappointment over his bowlers? performance against West Indies in a World T20 Group B clash at R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo on Saturday night, the Australian head coach Mickey Arthur urged the bowlers to learn from their mistakes ahead of the Super Eight stage of the tournament.
After opting to bat first, the West Indies top order ripped apart the Australian attack reaching 93 for 2 at the halfway point of their innings. Belligerent Jamaica opener Chris Gayle looted teenage pacer Pat Cummins for 18 runs in a single over before plundering sixteen runs off spin bowler Glenn Maxwell?s only over, to complete his half-century off just 26.
"I was really disappointed the way we executed with the ball," said Arthur during a media encounter on Monday. "We?re just a little bit sloppy and that annoyed me a little bit."
Arthur, who is the first foreign head coach of the mighty Aussies, said that he did not mind if a bowler misses out narrowly while trying to bowl a Yorker, but bowling same length deliveries to a particular batsman is unbearable.
"I've got problems when we're hit both sides of the wicket and I know what plans I want to execute against Chris Gayle," said the former South African cricketer.
"When we get it completely wrong, then I really get annoyed. Short and wide, back of a length. He just stood and took 18 runs,? he added further referring to Pat Cummins? second over, fifth overall of West Indies innings.
Arthur also admitted that the Australian bowlers panicked a bit after Chris Gayle started hitting them all over the park.
"We wanted to try and cramp Gayle up a little bit, which we did to a certain degree. Once he started going, I thought we panicked just a fraction,? conceded the South African.
The Australian have qualified for the Super Eight stage of the marquee tournament, where they will face former champions India, in-form South Africa, and the Group D topper, most probably Pakistan. Arthur urged his bowlers to learn from the mistakes against the Windies and iron those weaknesses out before facing the tough oppositions in the second round.
