“It’s something we talk about a lot,” Go advised Sky Sports activities forward of the 3rd ODI – survive Sky Sports activities Cricket on Wednesday from 12.30pm (first ball, 1pm).
“It’s a hard ability to nail ill however that’s what we’re looking to figure out as a one-day unit, methods to be constantly heartless.
“Clearly that adjustments with tone statuses, opposition, the place we’re on this planet and the way we play games our cricket.
“We’ve now not misplaced an ODI form underneath Lewy [Jon Lewis] but… so there’s clearly a heartless component in that.
“But there’s still a lot of inexperience in the group – we’ve still got a lot of young faces around. Bouch is a good example, she’d only played 10 games [before her hundred on Sunday].”
Bouchier (100no off 88 balls) clash the successful runs in England’s eight-wicket 2nd ODI triumph to snatch her thru to her first occupation hundred, Nat Sciver-Brunt (2no off 12 balls) having helped by means of farming the collision overdue on.
Following on from England’s nine-wicket win within the form opener – Unused Zealand bowled out for 157 and 142 in two destitute performances – it manner the hosts have handiest misplaced 3 wickets around the form, certainly one of which was once a trample over.
“That goes to show how clear our batters are on their plans,” Go stated.
“What I think has been brilliant to watch, from a team-mate point of view and a fan point of view, is just how clinical and ruthless we’ve been with our performances – particularly with the bat.
“Bouchier has been unbelievable. She’s been threatening to have that more or less position on the lead of the sequence and it’s splendid to look her getting into her personal now.
“Obviously to score her first hundred the other day, and how Nat batted, it epitomises what we’re about as a team.”
One in every of England’s handiest two defeats suffered underneath Lewis’ management got here within the ultimate fit in their excursion of Unused Zealand in April and Go is raring for the hosts to turn that new-found heartless streak by means of endmost out a form sweep with victory within the 3rd ODI.
“We were expecting a response from them in Worcester,” Go stated of Unused Zealand. “That was what Lewy spoke to us about before – ‘teams from the southern hemisphere don’t just lie down, they are going to come back at us’.
“I feel they’re more than likely on the lookout for methods to manner their batting innings and I surely be expecting that to return in combination a modest bit extra at Bristol.
“We’re well aware that they’re a team that wants to fight back and that they won’t want to lose the series 3-0, that’s for sure. We’re definitely expecting that they will come at us a little bit harder.”
