Steyn also said its better to start the seris as underdogs against India

Oct. 23, 2015 - PRLog -- Dale Steyn the fast bowler of South Africa One-day Squad confessed that South Africa do not hesitate to admit the point that they will enter the field in the approaching Twenty20 International (T20I) as well as One-Day International (ODI) series against India as second best, with the first T20I to be played on Friday 2^nd October in Dharamshala.

After Faf du Plessis, it was Dale Steyn who accredited the Indian Premier League (IPL), saying that IPL experience will undeniably help them in the series as they identify what “precisely to believe and will not become upset by the time it takes to travel between cities.”

It’s time to concentrate on our strategy said Steyn

On the word of latest Cricket update, Steyn added, “There are resemblances in both the teams with half-a-dozen senior, recognized players providing the staple of the team and a number of new faces ardent to launch themselves on the international stage. Apparently there’s no such thing as pressure in a team which is skippered by MS Dhoni, but the load of expectation will surely be substantial on the home side than us when we play the series.”

“In the Tests, we have one of the honored records in the account of the game to defend. The Proteas are undefeated in last 14 away series ever since 2006, the second-longest undefeated away arrangement after the famous West Indies team of the 1970s and 80s, which travel around 17 times without being beaten. Hashim Amla, is inflexible that as skipper of the Test team we would be asking for worry if we tried to `defend’ that record. If you attempt and elude defeat in Tests, you are missing the fact of the game. We will play aggressive cricket,” Steyn said.

The most exciting tour in his career

The 32-year old, who appreciates the warmth from the BCCI for having the most comfy hotels of the country for the South Africans, said that the coming series that will last for no less than 72 days is the lengthiest tour of his career and perhaps the most thrilling one. “I can’t help discerning that careers will be formed and possibly even made or shattered during the next two months, and I mean on both sides,” Styen said.
