T20 WC: Preparation’s Been Good, All Looking Forward To The Big Occasion, Says Rickelton
"Preparation’s been good. It’s always an optional session, but the guys look after their own space. Everyone’s in a different space, but as a collective, I think we’re moving quite nicely. Guys are prepared individually and make sure that they come ready for a big occasion tonight, and we’re all looking forward to it," Rickelton told broadcasters ahead of the clash.

"I’ll take that to start, but I think it’s just a different perspective, I suppose. Being lopsided in as an opener specialist can close your mind off to a few things. I think walking in there, that first game in Paarl against the West Indies, kind of opened my mind to how to play it.
