It will start spinning as the game goes on, and I think Ashley Giles will be a major player for England.
That's nearly seven (wickets) a game in that time, so I must be doing something pretty right, ... If I keep bowling like I'm bowling -- and we've been playing against the best players of spin -- and I'm taking wickets at a better rate than I have in my life, then 700 is a possibility.
Anyone who thinks the game is over hasn't been watching the same game or seen the conditions.
There are two ways of looking at it, like a heavyweight title fight if Bangladesh beat Australia in a one-day game they'd be the best side in the world,
We played well in Kenya. We didn't lose a game and we bowled Pakistan out for 100 twice. We don't need to change much from that for this tournament.
To me, cricket is a simple game. Keep it simple and just go out and play.
Find a way to get back in to the game, find a way to build a partnership, find a way to get bowling partnerships, find a way to catch a ball, find a way to stop it.
I'm not a big stats man but my stats over the last couple of years bowling on day one, two and three, stand up to any stage in my career,
I'm not sure I can go that long. We'll wait and see.
I'm happy about the record, but more pleased I got a couple of crucial wickets when we needed them.
I'm just a humble cricketer with no claims to omniscience or omnipotence.
I must have said it 14 000 times. I have retired and I have no aspirations to return.
It was a pretty good day, I think we are just probably slightly ahead,
It was nice to get the record in a place where it's always been difficult.
