Cricket: Roach looks for Windies bounce
Hopes the feel good factor of being World Twenty20 champions will rub off on him on the tour of Bangladesh.
BRIDGETOWN:
West Indies fast-bowler Kemar Roach hopes the feel good factor of being World Twenty20 champions will rub off on him on the tour of Bangladesh after he was overlooked for the recent triumph in Sri Lanka. “The players are very confident following that success,” said Roach. “It’s good to be around them right now. It’s been very inspirational and they are talking stuff that is very useful to me. We are looking to go forward now and move on from strength to strength.” Roach was not a member of the squad that won the tournament, the first major title West Indies have won since they lifted the ICC Champions Trophy eight years ago in England. West Indies face Bangladesh in two Tests from November 13 followed by five One-Day Internationals and a Twenty20.
