Birmingham, July 4: Australia batsman George Bailey is confident of winning the ODI series against England, despite being “outplayed” in the first two matches.
England is seeking a seventh consecutive home series triumph in 50-over internationals and has given themselves every chance after taking a 2-0 lead in the five-match clash with comfortable wins over Australia.
England would go to No.1 in the world in all three formats with a 5-0 triumph.
“The risk is you get on the bus and there''s a really quiet group and it''s a down-sinking ship, thinking ''what do we do now'',” Bailey told reporters.
“But the mood in the camp is not like that, it''s really upbeat, there''s joking, there''s banter and there''s talk about what we can do differently and the things we are going to try.
“And that to me suggests a team that still believes it can come back and win this series. If we play as well as we should, it will be very difficult for them to win 5-0,” The Sydney Morning Herald quoted him, as saying.
Bailey acknowledged that Australia have been “out-batted, out-bowled and out-fielded”.
