Amit - Batting as straight as possible should be the order of the play
Anam Arafat Amit was interviewed after the win against Bath
Ventuerers. You can read a full transcript of his interview below:
on his thoughts of the game and
areas the team need improvement…
I
think it was a good practice. We need to be proactive with the field settings
and fielding. As per bowling is concerned whenever we have little overcast
condition a good line length bowling should be good enough.
on the key element about his
batting…
Batting
as straight as possible should be the order of the play. Overall, I think
I could have contributed little more with the bat.
on his bowling…
Bowling
will improve as we go deep in the season.
Shehan - The enthusiasm is felt and we are all gelling in very well
Shehan
Somaratne was interviewed after the win against Bath Ventuerers. You can read a

on his thoughts
of the game and areas the team need improvement…
Personally
speaking, I think the boys did very well and have showed so much more
commitment and dedication going into the season. The enthusiasm is felt and we
are all gelling in very well. Every match that passes by, we are seeing every
player kicking in with their speciality. And I am sure this season we are going
to see a lot of unforgettable contributions from most players! I am looking
forward to being a spectator and watching the performance all the boys and the
evolution of WFCC as it reaches greater heights and its true potential.

Jude - We will learn from this for the next one
Man of the match Jude
Mudannayke was interviewed after the Sunday’s defeat against Bristol
Malayalees. You can read a full transcript of his interview below:
on his thoughts
about the game…
The
game as a whole I feel was a good one for the team. We started quite poorly
with both openers dismissed for 0 but I think Saad, Yameen and myself held the
batting together well and managed to dig ourselves out of a hole. Unfortunately
one of us couldn't go on and bat the 40 overs.
on his game plan
when batting at No.3…
The
thing is when you bat at no.3 you need to be prepared for all situations; the
team could be 0/1 for or 100/1 it is about adapting to the situation. If you
look at the best number 3s around the world they do that very well. Today when
I walked in it was case of stringing partnerships and breaking down 40 overs
into small segments. Setting small targets and achieving them along the way for
a big score.

Friendly (40 over): WFCC vs Bristol Malayalees, Match Report & Scorecard
Bristol Malayalees (183 for 8) beat Western Flyers (182 all-out) by 2 wickets.
The opposition termed it a pre-season warm up however for
WFCC it was the official kick off to the 2015 summer of cricket! Cold, wet and
windy weather doesn’t suggest summery conditions although such conditions have
become the norm for every season opener at this time of year.
The toss
Shehan Somaratna skippered in the absence of Club Captain
Atiqur Rahman. It wasn’t clear who actually won the toss; it seemed WFCC were
offered the chance to bat first given the lateness of one player which was then
followed by the actual toss which one can assume was won by the BMCC skipper
who decided to field.
