I just felt it was an important time of the game and to be contributing at that stage of the game would have made me feel good anyway, even if I had been scoring runs, so it was a great relief as well.

I didn't feel like it (the thigh muscle) was going to go again so it's feeling pretty good. It's been one of those ones we had to be pretty careful with because if I did it again it probably would have been the end of my tour.

We'll just wait and see. If it gets out of hand it gets out of hand, we're just here to play cricket.

We haven't been pushed to three games for many years and Sri Lanka are a credit to themselves.

The thing I can't believe is they must have rigged the voting, how can you keep up with him, Mr Cricket.

It was an important time of the game and to be contributing in that way it would have made me feel good even if I was scoring runs. It was a great relief. Hopefully, I can draw some confidence from my bowling and flow through to my batting here.
