Despite trailing 1-2 in the seven-match ODI series against Australia, off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin believes the hosts are under no pressure ahead of the sixth ODI at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Jamtha here today. <img alt="Ravichandran Ashwin" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/oct/Ravichandran-Ashwin.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 598px;" /> Ravichandran Ashwin. Pic/Getty Images &ldquo;There is no pressure as such. This is going to be a crucial game for us, so we just want to go out and enjoy ourselves and see where we can take it. It has been a good and tight series so far,&rdquo; Ashwin said yesterday. India lost the first and third ODIs in Pune and Mohali respectively, while registering a historic nine-wicket win in the second ODI at Jaipur. India chased down a mammoth 359 with 6.3 overs to spare. The fourth ODI was called off due to rain in Ranchi, while the fifth ODI in Cuttack was abandoned without a ball being bowled. The Indian bowling attack has been disappointing in the series. But, Ashwin said every bowler has been trying to improve. &ldquo;We are constantly looking to improve. There are always areas that you can work on, constantly looking to improve on. I have been trying to work on bowling more and more because that&rsquo;s the only way you can get better. There is nothing to worry,&rdquo; the 27-year-old said. When asked about the impact the field restrictions are having on the bowlers, Ashwin said, &ldquo;The demands of the game are such that you need to keep evolving as a cricketer. As long as the decision is not in my court, I cannot do anything about it. Whatever decision is being made, I will have to try and cope with it. I am sure all cricketers are doing the same thing,&rdquo; he said. Meanwhile, Australia skipper George Bailey is confident of winning the series, &ldquo;We are very happy to be 2-1 up. We have played some very good cricket. We are finding a lot of confidence at the moment. That stems from the way the tour has gone so far,&rdquo; Bailey said.u00a0
