Jones, is keen for his side to take advantage of the exciting cricket the team have played, with a positive mindset and calm nature at the forefront of their good form.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnytime you\u2019re in a final, anytime you have an opportunity to win trophies for Worcestershire or for the club, hopefully it\u2019s going to be a great day. 21 years has been a long time, so to get to a List A final is massive. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve played some amazing cricket this comp and just keeping that intent that we\u2019ve had in the field, with bat and ball, I know it\u2019s cliches and stuff like that, but it\u2019s always about taking a positive option when we can, and if we do that, we give ourselves the best chance going into this game by having the right mindset.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think in honesty, in finals and stuff like that, it can get a bit frantic at times. <\/p>\n
\u201cSo by staying calm and being present and showing that intensity that we\u2019ve played with is ultimately, hopefully is going to give us the best chance.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jones, averaging a sensational 56.75 in this year\u2019s competition, has excelled for the rapids in what has been a seismic middle order effort during the 50-over competition.<\/p>\n
The middle order batter says tomorrow\u2019s cup final is a chance to repay the people close to the players who have sacrificed time and commitments and allowed them to flourish during the 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of people coming from the club and obviously the families that are all involved with all the lads. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019ll just be really special. I think the whole point and the whole reason why you play cricket is to win trophies and to do it in front of your friends and family.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey have given up and sacrificed so much for you as cricketer. Your kids, wives and girlfriends. So they\u2019re ultimately the biggest support, the biggest fans, and it\u2019d be great to lift the trophy in front of them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jones, is keen for his side to take advantage of the exciting cricket the team have played, with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":148314,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[1721,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-148313","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-cricket","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148313"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148313\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=148313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=148313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
