At the mega auction last year, UPW assembled a group of experienced and young players with an aim to win their maiden title under Meg Lanning\u2019s leadership. \u201cMy message is very simple. This sport is about the players, not the coach. The type of cricket you are playing, just play that type of cricket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt is important that you play as a team. If this team can play together, it will be very good. The vision is clear. We will try to play good cricket. Whenever you enter a tournament, the mindset is always to win it. We will keep an eye on every player\u2019s form and try to perform well,\u201d Nayar told IANS on the sidelines of the pre-season press conference on Monday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
WPL has been fruitful in unearthing gems who have gone on to enter the Indian team and Nayar promised the same pattern will continue in the upcoming season set to happen from January 9 to February 5.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThe format and the speciality of this tournament is that they are continuously giving good players to India and the Indian team. This time also, we will try to get a new star from this tournament.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Nayar signed off by placing the onus on players to meet their own standards. \u201cExpectations are not ours, they are always of the players from themselves. We will try to see if the players meet their own expectations as they are very important in this game, considering the pressure around. My thought is that as long as our players can play good cricket and are happy with their cricket, that is my expectation from them.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
