Dubai: Each beginner Cricketer has a hero while growing up and is no different from the Irish Batsman Paul Stirling, who views Virender Sehwag and Australian Damien Martyn in his formative years.
In virtual interactions arranged by the International Cricket Council (ICC), Stirling remembers the days when he tried to copy Sehwag.
“I might have two batsmen that I like watching, one is Damien Martyn, he is good to look up (for), fun in the eyes, fun aesthetically, someone who can never imitate and Virender Sehwag, which I watch.
I) liked the game through off-side (and) tried to copy a lot of things, it wasn’t too good.
“” …
But (me) like watching the two bats, and used to watch the cricket test at home, which is not the thing Normal to do in Belfast as a 10-year-old child, “Stirling added, who has played 134 T20S, which has played, 3 tests and 86 t20s.
Like Sehwag, despite the outer criticism, Sterling, which made his T20 debut versus Pakistan in 2009, did not change the technique.
Is that a conscious effort not to change it? “This is something you learned when you continue, there will be more noise for Sehwag than what will happen to me.
I just think it’s not, it shouldn’t affect your performance, it only affects your performance, if you really take it From the outside, it doesn’t help in any way.
“Sterling, who has a” sports “family and” Cricket Ground “which is near his house, recalling how he fell in love with the game.
“Cricket especially what I might fall in love at the earliest age of about five (year).” Sterling also said that he watched the Indian Premier League match and he was “surprised” to see the goal in Sharjah.
He also stressed that he had to work together hard to play spinners and sailors at the T20 World Cup.
“Surely we have to work hard against the round and above the nets we have to prepare well but also keep an eye on the fact that something you noticed like (while) playing spin, don’t forget the sailors too and the other factors that come into it, so there are Many skills (needed) for sailors to play too, “he signed.
The T20 World Cup will be played in Oman and the United Arab Emirates from October 17 and Ireland will first lock horns with the Netherlands at the Cricket Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on October 18 on October 18.
