Chances are limited for Mortaza, Langeveldt: Buchanan

Bulletin By Shwe Wai

PORT ELIZABETH: He is the man in the firing line because everything that he planned has gone wrong, but even in adversity, Kolkata Knight Riders director of cricket John Buchanan has maintained a calm exterior as was on display during the media conference at the end of the day.

Excerpts from Buchanan's press conference:

On Mortaza not getting a game: Yeah, look at the moment we have adopted a batting strategy. So that's where our international effort is. So does that mean that guys that are international bowlers, whether it be Langeveldt, Mortaza, Mendis whoever it might be their opportunities are limited at this time. It is a question that we have posed to IPL a number of times about the involvement of more players on the field. I have personally mentioned that a number of times. Hopefully IPL will look at that more seriously going forward into next season and beyond.
