Terry Walsh: We are getting closer and closer

Analysing the victory of India over Asian-rival Malaysia, Indian coach Terry Walsh says that the Indian team is improving after each match here, and felt the team is getting closer to its target becoming a world power.

“We are improving, we gave very very decent performances notwithstanding results. Today we got the result, three points”.

Beyond winning he felt the full points will give definite booster to the team.

“We needed a victory today and got it, its good”, he said

However, he also felt that the team could have done better in the scoring department.

“We could have put out some more goals when we dominated, but it was not to be. Lest we need not have come across press subsequently”, he asserted.

Regarding next match against Australia, he felt it is a challenge.
“We are an up and coming team. Meeting Australia in such a big tournament is an opportunity as well as challenge. We need to defend strongly and hope we do it”.

If you ask me whethere we can make history by defeating Australia, my answer is definitely no

Because, I understand the reality, and respect that”

“But at the same time, if you ask whether we have potential to defeat Australia, my answer is definite yes”, Terry said.

He conceded to the fact that he was annoyed after the England match, as it was within our grasp to put it away, but we haven’t

Had only we done well against England, things would have been different by now”
