West Indies’ prodigal son, Kieran Powell who, in a major way contributed the team’s historic run chase in Friday’s Brighto Paints Q Mobile Cup One – Day curtain raise with a fighting half century, has indicated that the Caribbean side is not prepared to squander one-nil lead during a pre-match interview ahead of the second ODI.
Powell, was at the time speaking to the media and said: “Ahh, yeah it’s very important,” he noted while responding to questions surrounding the importance of going two up in the series.
“That’s one of the things we addressed in last night’s team meeting, obviously we have a win we savor it, we celebrate it but we don’t want to get complacent and think oh we have a win and end up losing the series two, one, so we have to come out tomorrow (today) and play as if the series is nil, nil and try and get a win a potentially get lead which will be an assailable lead in the series” he added.
