My batting has improved a lot: Pathan
22.46 IST 19th Dec 2005
By Agencies
Irfan Pathan, who made an invaluable 82 in the third Test against Sri Lanka in Ahmedabad, which was his second half century knock in a row following his 93 in the second Test at Delhi, said his batting had improved a lot of late.
"It would have been great if I had got my (maiden Test) hundred. I was stroking the ball well. It was very satisfying as both Muralitharan and Malinga were also bowling well today. My batting has improved a lot," he said.
Asked to compare his effort in Delhi to the one in this match, the 21-year-old Baroda player said he had enjoyed both the knocks as India were in difficult situation on both the occasions.
"The situation was demanding here. (Here) I was more positive while playing Murali".
Asked about his batting skills he said, "I am trying to keep my feet on the ground and not worry about results".
