Shane needs constant support, encouragement and reassurance that he is the man. He loves to be loved.
The IPL is just pure, intense. You don't need all the other stuff. I don't believe in coaches in international cricket.
Even though we are the home side, the pressure will be on England. I can't remember how long it is since they reached the final of a leading tournament, so there will be so much expectation on them now.
Everybody would like to know where they stand and what the side is as early as possible, which helps everyone prepare,
