New Delhi: Virender Sehwag said that their aim is to win the four match Test series against England starting from Nov. 15, says a report in The Times of India.
"Our aim is to play well and win the series. England are a good side but so are we. I think it will be a tough series for both of us," said Sehwag.
Sehwag also made it clear that the team is not here for avenging their humiliating 0-4 washout last year.
"We are not here for revenge. All this vengeance etc. is all due to media hype. We are concentrating on playing well and winning for the team and country," he said.
Meanwhile, The Hindu reports that Sehwag is focused on his game and is hoping to carry on the good form in the series.
“I am happy that I scored 100 against UP. Whether I am back in form or not, is not for me to decide but I thought I played well enough and hope to do well. I think they are a good side but so are we. We are preparing well for the series. We are confident of playing good cricket against them. We have a practice camp before the series starting November 9. I think it will be a tough series for both of us. We are eagerly waiting for the series to start,” he said.
Sehwag who has played 98 Test matches so far said, “It was my dream to play for my country. Since the time I achieved that, my next dream has been to perform well and play 100 Tests for India. I am very happy that moment is coming soon.”
