All-rounder lifted by win over West Indies in second ODILivingstone: ‘I think we’ve been guilty of trying too hard’
Liam Livingstone proclaimed England’s victory over West Indies in the second ODI on Wednesday “a massive turning point” for the troubled team, a night when all the pieces clicked into place and the atmosphere shifted and brightened after a miserable World Cup was followed by defeat in the series opener.
“I wouldn’t say the energy’s ever been flat. I don’t think it was flat in India,” Livingstone said. “Sometimes you can try too hard, and I think we’ve been guilty of trying too hard. Sometimes you’re better off just letting things flow and relying on your natural ability – it’s something we’ve got truckloads of in that dressing room. It was going to turn at some point and I feel like Wednesday may be a massive turning point for us.
