The 45 degree temperature will seem like 54 degrees Celsius tomorrow as the match pressure will build up in front of packed galleries.
We want to win this series as well, we want to win two of the next three matches. Rain permitting, we will play our best eleven, though we will also rest some players and give those who haven't played a game yet a chance to show what they are capable of.
We will be more happy if result oriented wickets are prepared because playing a drawn test match is not good for the game.
We are worried about the lack of runs from our openers and the top order and are working to correct this.
If they give us bouncy and seaming tracks they will struggle against our attack because their batsmen are not technically sound.
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.
We've won the series, but it doesn't mean we'll take the remaining three matches lightly.
We did not get enough runs. If we had not lost early wickets, may be the scenario would have been different.
I was told about the world record when I came back to the dressing room. Tomorrow will be another practice day for the batsmen because it will be a drawn match.
I think Pakistan is more under pressure than us because they are playing at home.
Our lower order batted very well after the top half didn't contribute much.
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.
It didn't happen and that cost us the match.
If I play down the order, then there is nobody who can open.
