Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh today emphasised on the need for the tail-enders
to contribute with the bat.
"It is important for bowlers to bat and contribute. As we bat down the
order, the 20-odd runs that we can contribute is very important. All the bowlers
have been working hard on batting as well," he said.
"The 35-40 runs can make huge difference in big matches.
We do take our batting seriously," Harbhajan said here today after participating
in a Twenty20 match at the MIG Club.
He said the Indian team was keen to sustain its winning run
while heading into the World Cup.
"There are ups and downs in cricket. We have done well
in both the recent one-day series. Now we all are working hard to keep this
winning momentum going. Every player dreams to perform well in World Cup and
so do I. I will try my best to take more wickets and bowl economically,"
said Harbhajan.
The Punjab bowler said he was aiming to put up a good performance
and help India shine in the quadrennial event.
"My job is to bowl, I know that if I bowl well I will
get wickets and also the runs will not be scored. Also I want to score runs
while batting," said Harbhajan.
