00:00Queen's Park's cricketers have been training assiduously for the TTCB T20
00:04festival which gets underway on March 6th. Their first match is against
00:08central-based side Presal. At the moment all teams are on a break from the two
00:13day premier competition with four rounds having been completed. Also training with
00:18the Parkites is Akhil Hossain who isn't taking any of the other teams lightly.
00:22I think we're putting in the work we're not gonna take anything for granted you
00:27know a lot of the guys have been playing on the same team with you know
00:32different guys in terms of lesser tournaments so they kind of understand
00:37you know what they're coming up against and they don't fear anyone so we put in
00:41any work as you can see right now just gearing up for the first game. And what
00:46does the 31-year-old West Indies whiteboard cricketer want to achieve
00:49personally in the T20 tournament? For me just I always try to keep it simple and
00:54you know do whatever the team requires but with that being said you'd obviously
00:58like to perform as well being a senior player coming back you'd obviously like
01:02to perform in with the bat and ball so that would definitely be my goal to try
01:06and perform as best as possible and you know hopefully help my team to get back
01:11that T20 title. Captain in QPCC is Darren Bravo with David Furlong coaching
01:16the side. According to Furlong QPCC's win on first innings in the recent two
01:21day match against defending champs Central Sports is a boost going into
01:25the T20 festival. I think what was mainly important is our second innings you know
01:29we have been batting well in the last few games but our second innings against
01:34Central Sports there you know we got it right you know scoring 300 odd you know
01:38for the loss of four wickets you know with three batsmen getting one batsman
01:42getting a hundred and two others getting fifties so you know that was our main
01:46concern so it's good to see the batsmen back in form so I think it all goes well
01:51for us going forward to the T20 tournament. While results do matter Furlong made it
01:56clear in the past that discipline is most important as such both coach and
02:00captain have been doing their part to make sure everything is hunky-dory.
02:04The chemistry is good now you know we now getting it together you know even as a club
02:10with all the other teams you know we had a little discipline problem with some of
02:14the players but you know we've sorted that out you know so that you know
02:17everybody now is in the same place and you know they understand you know what
02:21what we expect what we look for Darren and myself so that everybody now you know is
02:26gelling well together and you know everybody's happy you know I think
02:32because I think the important thing once the players are happy then the team will
02:35perform well. Besides Preysal also in the same group with QPCC or defending
02:39champs Central Sports, Marching Patriots and Yorkshire.
