Wright’s advice to Indian team: Stick to your game plan
21.58 IST   07th Feb 2004

By IndiaExpress Bureau

Praising Australia for coming up with fresh tactics in the first triseries final, coach John Wright today said the Indians should stick to the game plan that has helped them dominate the current tour and could still fetch them a rare one-day title on Australian soil.

"We have to put our plans in action and if that happens, we would have the result we want," said Wright ahead of the crucial second triseries final at the Sydney Cricket Ground tomorrow.

Wright dragged the Indians out of the hotel for a shock nets session here this afternoon.

There could have been a voice or two of disapproval when he asked the players to get on the bus, because of the tiring schedule, but the general effect of it seemed to have done a world of good for their spirits.

With the seven-wicket defeat in the first final still hanging over them heavily, Sourav Ganguly and Co. walked in to the ground tired.

But they were soon perked up by the sight and sounds of a few die-hard supporters who chanted their names and greeted them with thunderous applause.

The players began with a huddle and gave a loud war cry before playing a game of volleyball and rounding it up with stretching and autograph-signing session for the benefit of supporters.
