Sticking to strength has a lot to do with his success in T20 cricket, feels England speedster Chris Jordan.

In the recently held Indian Premier League (IPL), Jordan plied his trade for Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and claimed 9 wickets in the cash-rich tournament.

The right-arm pacer now gears up for another T20I assignment in South Africa and is looking to surpass Stuart Broad's record of most wickets in the shortest format of the game for England.

"The more you play T20 cricket, the more I'm a big believer in sticking to your strengths and trusting them as much as possible. Some of the batters and quality hitters out there can make you doubt them at times, but the nature of T20 cricket is that, as long as you're bowling, those kind of things are liable to happen," ESPNcricinfo quoted Jordan as saying.

"Sometimes you can go back through your spell and look at the execution and think, well, actually my execution wasn't too far off, the batter just got the best of me on the day," he further said.

"So, over a period of time, I just tried to judge myself on execution as much as possible and not end result, just so I can keep my emotions as level as possible," Jordan added.

England and South Africa are slated to play three T20Is and as many ODIs. The T20I series will start on Friday (November 27) in Cape Town.
