[Saba Sports News] Afghanistan’s impressive World Cup campaign has garnered attention, and head coach Jonathan Trott is setting new goals for their in-form batting lineup. Their next challenge is to achieve a century in the ongoing tournament, as no player has reached this milestone yet.
Trott is optimistic about his team’s capabilities, citing several players with a history of scoring centuries. He particularly highlighted the middle-order batsmen as key players who can break through this new barrier. Trott believes that the team’s batters are well-equipped to accomplish this feat in the near future.
To maintain their consistency in chasing targets, the Afghan team employs a unique strategy of breaking down the target on a whiteboard in the dugout. This approach helps reduce the pressure during the chase by providing smaller, manageable targets.
Trott emphasized the importance of keeping the players motivated and focused on their ultimate goal, which serves as a morale booster when they know they are on the right track.
