Despite the absence of the national team members, Angara wants his players to remain focused. &#8220;We want to win the tournament but at the same time we should not be over-confident. We have to be in our best frame of mind. We are taking care of the things but we will have to improve on our fielding and death bowling,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Swamibapa didn&#8217;t achieve great success this year and would be keen to get back to the groove. They lost their league and T20 titles to Kanbis. The team&#8217;s fielding has been their area of concern in the Twenty20 matches and Angara hopes to change tact this time round. &#8220;We need to get our basics right and we seriously need to imrove on our fielding,&#8221; he said. Swamibapa will be keen to have Shashikant Sangani and Mitesh Sangani in their batting line-up. The two who are second team regulars have continued to impress for the main team since last year. &#8220;They are our most experienced batsmen. It&#8217;s important to have those kind of players and I am hoping they will have a good day. We know of the wicket it&#8217;s so good to bat on,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Angara also said they need to bowl better in the death overs. &#8220;Variation is important and at the same time you have to bowl good yorkers. That is the key. A good death bowler should have yorkers. We are improving and done well in patches. We need to be consistent with the ball in the last eight or ten overs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- end story layout piece here --><\/p>\n<p><!-- close google_banner_subbody div ---><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><b>More News on allAfrica.com<\/b><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>View the original here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201103110201.html\" title=\"Kenya: Swamipaba Confident Ahead of Final Duel Againast Gymkhana\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kenya: Swamipaba Confident Ahead of Final Duel Againast Gymkhana<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Nairobi Star (Nairobi) Dun Okinyo 10 March 2011 SWAMIBAPA captain Joseph Angara has said his team can&#8217;t afford to be complacent ahead of their NPCA 40-40 tournament final match against youthful Nairobi Gymkhana this weekend.
