On his fourth tour of Australia, India pace spearhead Ishant Sharma says India are focused on giving their best towards winning the series. He adds he himself uIs hungry to do well.

“I've played 11 years, I don't need to think that I need to do well. I'm not really a kind of person who thinks about what happened in the past, I'm always looking forward to what's going to happen in the future. I'm looking forward to do well in this tour as well,” Ishant was quoted as telling reporters in Sydney according to a News18 report.

Ishant, who will be leading the attack, has potent pacers for company in Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah.

Speaking about the competition in the team, Sharma adds, “You have a healthy competition in the team. Lot of fast bowlers are coming and if you're not doing well you'll have to sit behind and watch the game,” said Ishant. “It's a great opportunity for everyone to do well in any condition. We did well in the last two tours in South Africa and England.”
