“The Indians tend to struggle a bit against good fast bowling, and with me being in some sort of form I know I could cause some problems”

Jamaica left-arm pace bowler Sheldon Cotterell has announced that he is “really looking forward to going to India” in November after he was included in the national team’s Test squad.

However, the 24-year-old may be forced to miss the first Test as he is still recovering from a twisted knee.

“I am really looking forward to going to India and playing, as with my pace, aggression and accuracy, I know I can take wickets”, he said. “There is also the fact that the Indians tend to struggle a bit against good fast bowling, and with me being in some sort of form I know I could cause some problems.

“The injury is coming on much better now and there’ll be an assessment this Wednesday,” he added. “It’s a scan and then a decision will be taken as to whether or not I am fit enough to go. I won’t cheat myself and my body. If I know I am not fit enough, I will not go. There is a lot of cricket for me play and there will be much more opportunities if this one does not come through.”
