It's mixed (the elbow injury), but it's okay. Ajaz Patel and Will Somerville have done well previously. We are going in with two spinners, two pacers and a spinning all-rounder debut in Rachin Ravindra,"

For us, it's looking to come up with different methods and ways to look to score and trying to be effective and build those partnerships which are important. Every player's different, so their ways will be slightly different from one another but no doubt, a lot of thoughts have been going in to try and prepare as well as we can for some of the challenges, we know we are going to face,"

Like you mentioned, the Indian side has new players from their last series, so there are different factors to take into account. For us, it is about being well prepared and being as effective as possible as a bowling unit,"

It will be about assessing the conditions as quickly as possible," "Look, very challenging schedule after a World Cup, and credit to both teams for putting their best foot forward and really competing in a big way. I suppose when you do have different formats, World Cups, and WTC, focuses of sides gears towards that. It is natural and all teams look to do that. It was special to have crowds facing the games.
