It's very hard to put some intensity and [build] combinations as when you're playing for India or South Africa or somewhere else. It's hard to maintain the intensity in that way. Our batting is not clicking.
Not a single partnership clicked. That was the main reason why we did not score as much as we would have wanted.
Once in a while it's okay, but I think he should bat at No. 3 because he is a very good player at this number.
Opening is still a worry and I'm also not getting enough runs. But I'm playing my natural game and not thinking too much about it.
Our confidence is very high, so I think we will handle Pakistani bowlers easily as we did against them on our last trip. So we are pretty confident.
Our lower order batted very well after the top half didn't contribute much.
The 45 degree temperature will seem like 54 degrees Celsius tomorrow as the match pressure will build up in front of packed galleries.
The pitches in the sub-continent are traditionally the same but if we have good weather for five days then we can get a result either way which is good. Because we are not here to play drawn matches.
The world record really doesn't matter, I didn't know we were close to the record until I came back to the dressing-room.
There is no difference between dust and the surface here.
They (Pakistan) gave us flat tracks last time and we won both the Test and one-day series there.
They had lost the series to us two years ago and did not want to take a chance.
Till now in my whole cricket career, I have found that it is not easy to play against McGrath due to his perfect bowling in respect of line and length.
We are concerned about the lack of runs from our opening batsmen and the top order and would be working to put this right.
We are progressing well. By the time of the World Cup, we will be ready in all departments -- bowling, batting order etc.
