We know what exactly we are doing, and will try to do our best. I hope it doesn’t change much. The overhead conditions also matter in this part of the world. We have adapted well, and hopefully, another game where we put up a show. Every game matters in this tournament, nothing changes. We are playing the same team.”

    ” We are going to bowl first. Looks a belter, it looks lovely. It’s a quarter-final, looking forward to it, a big challenge against India.
