Gary Kirsten returns home

Colombo: Gary Kirsten, India’s cricket coach, left Sri Lanka on Tuesday night to be with his critically ill mother in South Africa.

Kirsten said his departure wouldn’t affect the side’s focus ahead of the crucial third Test.

Kirsten said: “I have complete faith in what Anil (Kumble) can do. He can come and take over the reins.

“There is a calm focus and humility about how we go about it. There is no arrogance in the environment. The work will begin tomorrow.

“These players are aware of what they need to do. And they are right on track in terms of their preparation. They know they have an opportunity to make history. And when each individual gets into that space we will be quite difficult to beat.” — Special Correspondent
