The pace of T10 makes T20 cricket look slow, opines Stephen Fleming
Head coach of the revamped T10 franchise Delhi Bulls, Stephen Fleming has spoken of the breakneck nature of the T10 format that, according to him, even makes T20 look slow. The veteran CSK coach also insisted on the need for his team to play a positive brand of cricket heading into the tournament.
Last month, a few major changes were made to the newest edition of the T10 league, including the revamp of a couple of franchises. Among these was the Bengal Tigers team that now has a new name, the Delhi Bulls. The franchise then announced their major players for the 2019 season, after roping in Eoin Morgan as their captain.
Meanwhile, the chief coach of Delhi Bulls Stephen Fleming, who was present for the players' draft on Wednesday, is gearing up for the challenges of the Abu Dhabi T10 League that will be held between November 14 and 24. The CSK coach pressed on the fact that T10 is even more fast moving than T20 and needs a different approach.
“Compared to T10, even T20 looks slower. We need to pick different types of players for T10,” the former New Zealand captain told TOI.
"Nevertheless, the bottom line is every strategy needs to be implemented properly. We need to play positive brand of cricket. That is applicable to all formats of the game," he added.
