Marsh hoping to make comeback in international cricket

India Gazette (ANI) Wednesday 8th February, 2012

Shaun Marsh has said he is hoping to make a comeback by following a simple plan - clearing his head of demons and attacking the ball at every opportunity.

"I just went out there with a clear mind and tried to be positive. I thought I was a bit tentative during the Test series. Things were just building up inside me...," news.com.au quoted Marsh, as saying.

"I've decided if the ball is in my area I am going to attack it pretty hard. It's been a tough and challenging six weeks for me. It was nice to get a few runs and hopefully I can build on that," he added.

Marsh's statement comes after he made an eye-catching 79 for Western Australia against Queensland after being ruled out of international cricket for some time.

Marsh, 28, looked set for a pressure-relieving century until he played across the line and was caught in the gully.

But he looked far more composed and adept at the crease as compared to the struggling and shaky batsman that Australian crowds have seen for most of the summer. (ANI)

    Four days ago marked two decades since Ratko Mladic became the commander of the main staff of the army of Republika Srpska - the VRS. On that day, Mladic began his full participation in a criminal endeavour that was already in progress. On that day, he assumed the mantle of realising through military might the criminal goals of ethnically cleansing much of Bosnia. On that day he commenced his direct involvement in serious international crimes.
