Duminy: “Kirsten says it’s all up to us to win”

Protea’s cricket player JP Duminy has said that Gary Kirsten, who has only just taken on the job of Protea’s coach, has made it very clear to the players that it is up to them to win matches. Kirsten, who had immense success with the Indian cricket team who won the 2011 Cricket World Cup, has had a bumpy start to his coaching position. The Proteas have gone on to have two wins and two losses in two Twenty20 matches and two one-day internationals (ODIs).

Duminy explained that “Gary pointed out, when we got together earlier in the year, that he doesn’t have a silver bullet to help us win games. It is all about us as a team, as individuals, putting in performances. He can only guide us so much and it’s all up to us.”

South Africa have the chance to claim their first series win under the coaching guidance of Kirsten when they face Autralia in the third and final ODI in Durban on Friday.

Despite the importance of Friday’s game, Duminy has commented that South Africa will not be changing their preparation for the match.
