A good ball is a good ball to any batsman. Our bowlers bowl good balls and all batsmen at the WC will have to play it. We are not bothered by the opposition. We are focused on bowling good balls. This is how you win matches by bowling good balls and taking wickets or stopping runs.

Batsmen will always try to smash the ball (look at Tamim) and if luck is on their side then they score runs. But we have a role to play as bowlers and the bowlers are sticking to what we have trained them to do.

If you are confident in your skills then you can bowl well in the WC or in your own garden at home - it really doesn't matter. A good ball is a good ball. Confidence comes from being able to trust yourself.
