Khan praises team after victory

 (Posted On Tue 18 May, 2010)

The skipper has today spoken after Oceans produced a superb display against a good Sparta team. 'I am very pleased and was able to sleep a lot better last night. I thought we were very good in all departments of our game. I was disappointed to lose a lot of wickets towards the end but that was mainly down to guys trying to get on with it.It was very comfortable for us after we posted such a big score and I never felt Sparta would have got that score with the bowling resources I had at my disposal.


Khan praised the contributions of both Arsalan and Rian on a difficult batting wicket,'They were fantastic and put pressure on the Sparta bowlers. I felt they bullied them and I could see a few heads going down in the Sparta team. I particularly enjoyed Rian's innings. He got back to his old self again and this innings will do him the world of good.

Khan has now turned his attentions to the next league game which is away to Merz.'The table will look a lot promising for us this week. We are back on track and I'm hoping my team can maintain this form all season.I don't know much about Merz but any game away from home is tricky.I am looking forward to that game and hope we can put on another show.
