Vettori says motivation in tough situations comes from within and it’s around one’s own individual performances

Hyderabad: Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Daniel Vettori says normally the motivation in tough situations comes from within and it’s around one’s own individual performances.

Speaking to media on the eve of the IPL league match against Punjab Kings here on Friday, Vettori said that if one looked at the entire squad, they’re all exceptional players in their own right.

“So, they all take pride in their individual performances. And, think that’s what you all see,” he said.

“The challenge for us is getting one or two guys to really stand up and deliver, and then the rest of the team being able to complement that,” Vettori said.

“I think you have to give other teams credit. I think right from after the auction it looked like there were ten exceptionally good teams in the IPL. The distribution of talent was probably more spread evenly than it has been in the past,” he said.

“I think when you know the reputation of the surface and our batsmen, then the burden is on the opposition bowling to really turn up and understand what they need to do,” Vettori said.

“I think you guys identified it around how teams are executing plans against us and being very specific, and they’ve done a great job in that,” he said to a query.

“Unfortunately we’ve sort of seen a few of those ebbs at the moment within the group, but I still back that talent, I still back that skill level of all those guys to come good,” Vettori said.
