I'm Just Taking The Opportunities - Will Young

Will Young said that opening day's play was the toughest conditions he's ever played, including hot locations like Dubai and humid ones like Bangladesh. Young mentioned that the first day’s play was satisfying, even though the team scored 30 runs less than in their first innings at Pune.

"I do think so (on if the conditions yesterday were the toughest he's been ever part of), I've played all around the world, Dubai is hot, Bangladesh is very muggy, but this has more heat and mugginess. It was a pleasing day, we chatted about it at the end of the day's play yesterday, 30 runs less than the 1st innings at Pune, on a wicket which was spinning a bit more, I think we can take some early wickets, it will be an important passage of play this morning," Young said, as quoted by Cricbuzz.

"It's important to have a clear head on how you're going to play, I have a few shots which I like, depending on who is bowling and the field set-up. I'm just taking the opportunities as they come, it has been turbulent the last couple of years with injuries and comebacks," he added.
