Disappointed with my own performance: Mathews
July 5 (CRICKETNMORE) The 50-over World Cup is the biggest stage for any cricketer and when one is playing as a senior batsman in a team filled with youngsters, you expect for him to lead from the front. But sadly, that has not been the case for Angelo Mathews. The former skipper has managed just 131 runs from six games with a fifty in the ongoing edition of the World Cup.
Asked by IANS if his failure to rise to the challenge has been disappointing, considering that he is the senior member of the squad, Mathews said: "Yes, I am disappointed with my performance. I was able to get one big score but I missed out, specially in the first three games. I am very disappointed and could have done a lot better than what I have done. But hoping to finish off well."
