Hard-hitter Fletcher’s batting philosophy

There is no safe target in T10

Hashim Amla, the captain of the Karnataka Tuskers feels a safe total in T10 cricket is hard to come by. “I’m not sure what is a safe target,” he said. “If players like Andre Russell and Andre Fletcher are playing and if they get going there is no safe target. So, it is difficult for me to say what is a good score.” Delhi Bulls’ coach Stephen Fleming feels that there is no point worrying about a target. His advice is: “You’ve really got to be as accurate as you can for those 60 deliveries and small mistakes are going to count. So every ball is an event.”
