If we execute our plans, we will win: Paras Mhambrey

I think it’s important to maintain this hardware, as of now there is no discussion of kind of rotation from our point of view. I think it’s important to get this, carry this movement into the next generation. See, honestly, it’s never an easy decision, I think, but I found the conversations around, we had a clear chat with them.

Whenever we select a squad, the messages from us is very clear. We pick a squad we feel is the best for that wicket. And I think sometimes you will miss out. Someone like him is missing out, someone like Ash will miss out.

And I think that’s the communication that we have with him, we’re very clear. Difficult decision, honestly, even with the quality that he brings to the team, new ball, depth, it’s difficult to take that decision. But you have to take that decision, you only have 11 on the field. But, yeah, ask me about it, man. It’s been tough.

About Bumrah and his inclusion in the CWC 2023

I thought the last few years, couple of years, it’s been really tough. It’s tough to miss someone like Bumrah. You’ve seen him the last three games that he’s played, what really he brings to the table. He’s a world-class bowler. He gives you that breakthrough that you require in the far play.

He’s well-adapted to bowl in the middle of the course. And he’s a top-gun depth bowler. So I think in that sense, we really missed him. Glad that he’s shaping well. And I think we must credit the staff back at the NCA, the medical department, the physios out there, and out there as well.

On Kuldeep Yadav

They really worked hard behind the scenes the last few years, from where he was and to get him out here. So credit goes to them as well. But as you said, I think it’s a big, big bonus to have someone like him. Kuldeep, with Kuldeep, obviously, the last few years, he’s worked on certain things. He’s come with him on certain things in terms of his bowling, his action. And you can translate that into the way he’s bowled.

His speed is up, his accuracy is up there, hitting those lengths consistently. And I think it really complements in between as a wicket-picking option as well. He is a wicket-picking option for us, and he’s done that. So in combination, I think your gun bonus for us. I think honestly, I thought when you enter a World Cup, every team will pose you a challenge.

So from our perspective, maybe any team, I don’t think we’ll take anyone. That’s the discussion that we had. That’s one of the points that we spoke about. It can happen. But from our point of view, every game. Because we are the only side playing on nine different teams, nine different venues, nine different surfaces that offer different challenges for us.

So we want to prepare for that. Maybe Bangladesh or maybe Netherlands. I think we want to leave that game equally important. See, honestly, it’s a game, right? What you really come out here is execute your plans to the best of our ability. That’s a game. It’s going to be a tough side. As I just mentioned, every game for us is important.

Every opponent for us is important. We are not even looking at that side. I think what we want to focus on is what we’re going to do or what we’re going to achieve in this game. We have a plan. If we execute our stuff, we’ll win. And that’s the only thing that we’re talking about. The discussion that we have in the team is that.

Nothing else but the opponent’s best. To be honest, Tashkent has shown, really I’ve seen whatever I’ve seen of Tashkent in the last few years, I think he is one of the good fast bowlers that you see worldwide. He’s done, played well. He’s performed in different venues, different surfaces. Maybe Bangladesh.

Never an easy kind of surface out there. Not to seem unfriendly, but whatever performance that he’s done, he’s a really good bowler. Others, I think, when you’re part of an international sport, you have to be good to represent your country. So in that sense, others have good enough. And Spinner as well, Tash, you have Mehdi.

Both the Mehdis have done well. It’s a good sport and it’s a good bowling at times. You need to. At this level, there’s so much pressure that you need to understand. I can’t go too much in depth of what we really spoke, but I think from the mental perspective, you need to work with the mental aspect as well.

As a bowler, at the international level, it’s a lot of strength. It’s a high-pressure game that you are representing when you play for another country. And the pressure is going to be there. I think it’s important to how you deal with that pressure. There are different ways to deal with it. But other than the technical aspect, the mental aspect is important.

It’s important to be in the right frame of mind, in the right space, I feel, when you’re playing every game. And that’s something we’ve worked on. He’s understood where we come from, what are the areas we need to improve.

And I think you need to give credit to him. Even after he played so much, he played a fair bit of international cricket prior to that. But to understand why we’re saying certain things and work on it, I think you need to compliment him. That’s important. He’s worked on it. We’re there to help him. And he’s taken help. It’s a different challenge for us.

Like I said, we’re nine different women in this picture. We know there will be nine different surfaces. Weather-wise, the conditions will be different. We were in Nagpur. It was far away. Dharamshala will be cold. So I think what we know will happen. As a team, you think, prior to this game, in the month, whether there were matches or not.

The data is important to see what happened in the past games. But if you look at this surface, it’s been a good one. Overall, consistently, any match, whether it’s T20 or one-day, it’s been a good surface. As a bowling unit, I think it’s a challenging surface.

Because the ball comes on the bat well. It’s a small ground. Comparatively, if you look at other venues, it’s a small ground. It’s a high altitude. So I think here, the boundaries will score more. The sixers will score more. So it’s challenging. It’s challenging.

And let’s talk about how we will accept this challenge. What things can we focus on? We have to do what we have to focus on. So I think we know how the surface is going to be. Now it’s how we accept the challenge.

And the thing that is in our hands, we can focus on that. So that we don’t have it in our hands.
