We are trying to build good partnerships and are confident of handling the Pakistani bowlers who did well against England at home.
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 will be more happy if result oriented wickets are prepared because playing a drawn test match is not good for the game.
It is the prerogative of the home side to prepare the pitch. We are ready to play on any wicket but such wickets are not good for cricket.
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.
I don't think so! I have played better than many players who have played for India in the recent past. I have only one century while playing in the middle order as compared to nine as an opening batsman. By any standard, it's a good performance.
It was tough captaining the team as I'd missed the last Test match due to fever, but I'm delighted at leading India to a win.
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.
I wasn't expecting showers when we landed here after a three-hour flight.
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.
We need to win two to emerge winners in the fresh series.
We have already forgotten that. We are now looking forward to the World Cup. That was the past. Now, with so many youngsters in the team, we are looking ahead.
We have worked hard on our game and it shows in the results.
