I was pretty determined to play 30-35 overs anyhow because it is essential for a set batsman to stay at the crease for a long time." He added, "I took my time until I scored 50 runs after that even I started striking well. I have been playing like this for quite a while now, that is why I back that template and I know if I play till 40-45 overs I will get everything covered."

He said, "The first spell was really good. I was not thinking about picking wickets but the way they were striking the ball, I thought if we get a wicket right now it would change the game. The way Pooran and Hope were batting, there was a need to take a wicket and Shami bhai helped us grab two wickets. You can never plan a hat-trick but when I struck first with Hope's wicket, then Holder got out then for the third one I planned how to bowl. I was confused about what to bowl but then I set up a gully and went with the wrong-un. Luckily, I could hit the spot."
