All though, MS Dhoni has almost certain to play the 2019 world cup as team India’s wicketkeeper and the most experienced batsman, but India’s Test keeper Wriddhiman Saha on Tuesday said he has not given up on his World Cup dreams and is pushing hard to play in the 2019 mega event.
“My wife badly wants me to play in the World Cup. She insists that I must push harder to achieve that. I am also trying, but ultimately the decision lies with the selectors,” Saha said.
“My preparation is always aimed at bettering my performance. The rest depends on the selection committee. I don’t perform to just play ODIs,” said Saha, who has played just nine ODI’s till now.
“Those who are saying good things about my keeping know better. Whatever I have learnt, I am trying to execute,” he said.
In their next assignment, India will take on Australia in a five-ODI, three T20Is limited overs series starting in Chennai on September 17.
