“I have spent a lot of time in sub-continent conditions, I played in Sri Lanka a couple of years ago. I feel like I kw challenges that would be in store. Jos Buttler is one of best going around, it has been a privilege to watch him go about his business. I think at a specialist position like a keeper, you have to work toger a bit and learn and pass on your experiences to help each or along. You want everyone to do well and succeed for England,” said Ben Foakes during a virtual press conference.

It is about trying to prepare as well as I can,” he ded.
