Kochi Tuskers Kerala skipper Mahela Jayawardene is looking for consistency as the debutant shapes up for an away game in IPL-IV.
“Everyone identifying his role is great for the team. We have enthusiastic international players, as well as keen young Indians. Most of them are keen on getting into the national team and work very hard. Hopefully we can play some consistent cricket.” Jayawardene was addressing the media at the team hotel on Tuesday.
STEPPING STONE
He talked about treating the IPL as a stepping stone to international cricket. “If they (Indian players) perform well, it gives them an opportunity to get back into the Indian team. A lot of these boys have done well over the last three IPL tournaments. I think Ravindra Jadeja had a very good game, R.P. (Singh) bowled well, so did Sreesanth. These guys are hungry for success, good for us.”"
