As the West Indies prepares to play England in the 3rd and 4th Digicel One Day Internationals in Barbados, Windies batsman, Ramnaresh Sarwan, shares a page from his Diary: Ramnaresh Sarwan:
Hi Everyone,
Playing at home in Guyana for the 1st and 2nd Digicel One Day International was great. Having the support of my country is always a good feeling and they always support the West Indies and this time they came out in their numbers and offered their full support of the team.
On Sunday we were successful in putting what had happened in the 1st Digicel ODI on Friday behind us. Our body language on the field and the way we played proved that we were ready to take on the challenge at hand and win the game. We showed character and showed how much it meant for us to win.
We have an outstanding chance now in Barbados for the 3rd and 4th Digicel ODIs once we continue to play the way we have been playing. On Sunday we were able to get back our momentum and so it is important for us to keep that going here in Barbados. The story will continue at 9:30AM on Friday, so we will just have to prepare ourselves as we have been doing for the past weeks.
To our fans thank you for your continuous support, the team really appreciates it. You are who we play for and we will continue to make the West Indies proud.
Stay tuned as I and some of the other West Indies cricketers keep you up to date through our diaries of the Digicel Series 2009.
