We had to treat him with kid gloves, just say half-pace, and today he looked pretty effective out there.

The one area we've got to work on is the batters. They've got to show a little more patience [than in Pakistan].

It is asking a lot to send them in against India and players who play spin-bowling very well.

It's good news. I got it through on the phone this morning by text.

We needed Simon Jones's type of bowling which balances our bowling attack.

If you take a risky single and get run out, you would be frustrated.

Many people thought we hadn't played against strong opposition, but we came out and proved it.

We got into their faces, got into their space and it was so well done ? it was 'we can win this'.

It would be nice to go through the series with the same 11 players. I'll be discussing the matter with the other selectors, but I'm not going to say what we'll do.
