Montego Bay (Jamaica), Mar 8 (PTI) Yuvraj Singh is keen to justify captain
Rahul Dravid's faith in him as a solid middle order batsman by consistently
delivering with the bat at the crunch.
"I have a responsibility, sure. Whenever I go out to bat,
I tell myself that I need to bat till the end. I am trying all the time to finish
off games," the Punjab batsman said.
The left-hander draws confidence from his performance over the last two years
when he scored 1676 runs from 44 matches including five hundreds and nine fifties.
That, he reckons, is the reason his captain reposes so much trust in him.
"I have been doing that decently well, so the captain
has the faith in me. But one must also remember that it's not always possible
to do well." Yuvraj agrees with his skipper that a batsman who has been
set should look to bat the full quote of overs.
"That's an ideal situation. Anyone who bats well must bat till the end.
The roles of batsmen though could vary.
"Openers, for example, have to attack all the time while batsmen in the
middle should look to bat till the end."
