The
attacking Indian opener Virender Shewag
has said that he will be completely
fit before the start of the Australian
series next month.
He also said that though he can play
cricket, his fitness is not up to
the mark of International standards.
"I am not yet fit for international
cricket as I can't throw (the ball)
from the boundary line. But I would
be fully fit for the series against
Australia,"—he said.
When questioned about his participation
in the champions League, he confirmed
that he will play for Delhi Dare Devils
and will captain the side.
"I will play in the Champions
League and in the Irani Cup match.
There I'm captaining the side and
would be fielding in the slips or
other close-in positions,"—he
said.
Shewag also said that champion’s
league will be a good opportunity
for young cricketers as they will
be playing against huge crowd and
TV audience.
"For youngsters it offers good
opportunity to play in front of TV
audience and big crowds. Performing
well in the Champions League or IPL
counts. It's a good platform for the
youngsters," he ended.
