Mungroo looking to kick on<\/a>: <\/p>\n

Durban \u2013 With an Mzansi Super League winner\u2019s medal around his neck and confidence to boot, young Hollywoodbets Dolphins seamer Kerwin Mungroo hopes to recreate that form when he turns out for the Durban franchise this coming season.<\/p>\n

The 25 year old broke his finger in the Dolphins\u2019 Momentum One Day Cup game with the VKB Knights in Bloemfontein which put an end to a promising season for the Ladysmith-born star which led to a tough few months on the sidelines.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe injury hit me really hard because I felt like I was playing good cricket up to that point,\u201d Mungroo said. \u201cWhite ball cricket is what I love and I grew up playing it so I was excited for the One Day Cup and was hoping to contribute a lot to the side.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I might have also been too keen to get back playing and that meant that the injury didn\u2019t heal properly so that set me back further.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lockdown has given me a proper chance to recover which has been good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mungroo formed an important part of the Mzansi Super League winning Paarl Rocks bowling line-up where he took one for 21 in his four overs in the final as the Rocks beat the Tshwane Spartans. Being involved in a tournament winning side was a big boost for Mungroo\u2019s confidence.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe emphasis at the Rocks was taking responsibility and doing your part for the team,\u201d he explained. \u201cI knew that I would have to bowl with the new ball and try and get some swing up front and then have to come back at the death.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe senior players would give me assistance but they wouldn\u2019t tell me what to do and I think that has given me a lot of confidence in my own game.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt like I came back to the Dolphins as a different bowler and I was backed by the coaching staff which was a massive boost for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Dolphins employed a new bowling coach in Quinton Friend at the beginning of last season and Mungroo feels that he has had a positive impact on his game so far.<\/p>\n

\u201cQuinton always wants you to give one hundred percent all the time and he is always on your back making sure that you are putting in the hard work.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel that I thrive in that sort of environment and having him always talking to me and making sure I am trying to get better is great.\u201d<\/p>\n

With an extended offseason for the Dolphins, Mungroo isn\u2019t sure what the immediate plans are but he is trying to make do with what he has at home in Ladysmith.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a gym here so I am trying to stay as fit as I can but I haven\u2019t done any bowling yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a team meeting the other day and hopefully we\u2019ll be able to get back in the nets bowling in Durban soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mungroo has set himself a very simple goal for the upcoming season as he plans to take his career to the next level.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to play all formats and do as well as I can for the Dolphins because as we saw with my good friend Daryn Dupavillon if the Dolphins are doing well then the national selectors take notice,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
