Difficult to stop Indian juggernaut: Sammy

Windies are yet to win a match against India despite coming agonisingly close on a few occasions.

With India on a 10-match winning streak at home,it is difficult to stop their juggernaut,said West Indies captain Darren Sammy ahead of their second one-dayer here tomorrow.

West Indies are yet to win a match against India despite coming agonisingly close on a few occasions during this tour so far.

8220;India so far have won the last 10 games at home. When you have a winning run,you always tend to get a way to go over the line,8221; said Sammy.

India wriggled out of a precarious position to clinch a nerve-wrecking one-wicket win over the West Indies in the first ODI at Cuttack to take 1-0 lead in five-match series.

Windies had a real match in their hands when they had India 201 for 9,chasing 211 but the victory remained far-fetched as Indian tail of Umesh Yadav and Varun Aaron crossed the line in time.

However,Sammy said that they would be taking a lot of positives from the last game and felt that their elusive victory was just around the corner.

8220;We keep getting close. We need to find ways to overcome that. We managed to take India all the way down to the wire,defending a small total. As much as we were disappointed in losing,the guys will take a lot of confidence going forward in the one-day series,8221; the skipper insisted.

8220;We are definitely looking to win games here. We have showed that we can compete with the best one-day teams in the world. Had we showed killer instincts in the last game,we could have crossed the line. Hopefully,we would come victorious tomorrow.

8220;We as a young team,we need to find a way out whether it8217;s mentally,physically or tactically. I believe in all the guys here. A win is just round the corner. It could be tomorrow,8221; he added.
