We had a chat in the meeting that thinking about totals would not help, we have to play to our strengths and we will get the big total. One of the top four batters has to bat deep and if we can do that then we will post good totals.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Because there are only five teams in the tournament, the turnaround between games is quick, and teams must adjust to this schedule.
