London:
Indian coach of the World Cup cricket squad Ravi Shastri said any team could win on any given day in the upcoming World Cup cricket contest.
“It is a strong competition. ….very challenging, like Virat mentioned, any team can beat any team on a given day,” Shastri said. “… The good thing though is there are those nine games, rather than just three or four games where you have to be on the ball from the outset.”
Shastri said India’s batsmen must make a quick assessment of the conditions quickly and display a cautious approach.
“Our mantra will be to be flexible according to the condition. Because it is one country in the world, the pitches could be flat but if the overcast conditions change, we have to be up for it”.
“Any other country, this wouldn’t have mattered but in England it does. In London you might not face that issue but if you go up north and when it does get overcast, you can see things happening. You have to be ready for that,” Shastri added.
India will begin ts campaign against South Africa on June 5.
