It was nothing, we were just discussing cricket. Why do you people have to read more into everything?
I can't really say I'm batting badly. I'm not batting long enough to be batting badly
We need results in test cricket. Both teams are evenly matched and we are excited about this game. We got some good batting practice in Lahore.
Ever since I was a boy I have been fascinated with the game of cricket and committed to understanding its complexities. This journey has taken me to create The Chappell Way and my dream of assisting people in becoming a better player or coach.

Most games at the international level are played in very good spirit. There are some personality clashes from time to time and there's a bit of emotion that comes out from each game. If there's no emotion in cricket at this level it would not be worth watching.
We won't have a long duration camp. We had lot of cricket over the last few months. So, we will probably get together only the day before we leave for Pakistan.
