Cowan said retired Australian opener Matthew Hayden's

impressive record on Indian soil was an inspiration and he too is hopeful of scoring a lot of runs in the series. "I think it's be hard not to be inspired by him for me and for any aspiring Australian cricketer coming through international cricket. The way he performed in 2001 was incredible," he said. "The way he found a way to put pressure on the Indian bowlers was brilliant. For him it was the sweep shot. I think it�s a question of finding your shot with which you can put pressure on the bowlers and having the courage and the confidence to stick to it. "I've felt comfortable over the last 14 months and I'm looking to hopefully score heavily in the series," he said. Cowan also said that his opening partner David Warner will recover completely from his thumb injury before the Test series begins here on February 22. "I am very confident Warner will be fit for the first Test. Obviously concerned as a friend and teammate that he hurt himself but from what I can gather it�s actually an opportunity for David to have a mental break from cricket. It has come at a nice time as there is so much cricket to be played with the Test series, IPL for him and the Ashes." Asked about his completely contrasting approach compared to Warner's attacking game, Cowan said he will persist with that. "I don't think my plans would differ too much against the new ball. I think the most important thing here is if you get a start, you need to go on. So if you get in, make the most of it. I've obviously got specific plans for each bowler and I've been working really hard on away going spin. "I will look to hold fort but I�m at my best when I�m positive and I think I showed that against South Africa. I was playing well against the best attack in the world and I was looking to play on my terms. It depends on the situations and the conditions in which you bat," he said.
