Two performances cannot take away anything, it is people’s perception. Our performance still stands even if we lose these two games.

But scoring at eight runs per over was always going to be difficult.

The idea is to get a combination that can take 20 wickets in the match.

England’s obviously had some bad luck. It’s unfortunate what’s happened to a few of their key players, but England must not be underestimated.

But this is a seven-match series and hopefully they would do so in the remaining games.

It is a great feeling, everyone has played well. The team had been under pressure at times in the series but we had people who pulled the team out.

England will be a very good side, very competitive. They’ve had a bit of bad luck and it has been a little unfortunate what happened to a couple of their key players.

Reactions are always extreme when you lose or win, but these players are fully equipped and will not allow the performance to affect.

The lads have been great, they’ve taken ownership of the side.

Having batted here before I knew at 60-70 it gets really hard to concentrate.

Our aim is to try and win test matches, irrespective of the conditions, and we need to look at the best combination to win. We thought we needed five bowlers to get us 20 wickets...

We needed another wicket at that stage (95-6), but could not get it. We could have probably bowled a bit better in that game.

It was hard to keep concentration going [because of poor light], and it was bound to happen at some stage.

We played the best batting combination and it clicked in the first two Tests. But I guess we now have to think about playing the best batsmen in best positions.

Seeing the video, cricket seems like fun, I didn’t know that. We only know about fast bowlers, dressing room and hotels. Now I know what to do after I finish with cricket. You meet so...

It’s a long season ahead for us. It’s the start of what I see as a very long 6-8 months. If we take the right steps, hopefully we will see some progress in the course...

England had shown in the Ashes series against Australia that if you play five bowlers, you can win some very good matches.

They (Pakistan) have a very good batting line-up. But our bowlers bowled very well and we took some very good catches. It was a determined team effort that fetched us this victory.

I will have to see how the wicket looks tomorrow before deciding what to do (If I win the toss), but I don’t think the toss would make much of a difference.

It’s a myth that Indians can’t play fast bowling and also that England can’t play spin bowling.

It will be tough for both the teams and a challenge for both batsman and bowlers.

I am looking forward to the series, it should be a good one. We had a very good tour of Pakistan last time and I enjoyed the country and enjoyed going there. Hope the same...

Hopefully, we will carry forward the confidence of this series against England after a few days off.

All of us had been reading about it in the history books over the years. So, it was very special just to have passed the same route after knowing about all those great people who...

We are planning to developing a strategy which will give us 20 wickets in a match as in the last four encounters we were unable to do so for a victory.

It’s been difficult for England.

We’ve faced a few (fast) bowlers, so it’s nice to have someone who can give it back.

The track was a good wicket to bat on and was a bit slow. It was a similar kind of wicket we might get in Tests as well,

We’re disappointed that we couldn’t compete well, … We’re disappointed that the batsmen couldn’t apply themselves.

In my opinion, and in the opinion of the umpires and match referee, both of whom I have spoken to, the Indian team did not get in any manner that was unsportsmanlike or against the...

They can be devastating against any bowling on their day. We have to accept that and respect that.

I think the first session tomorrow is going to be very critical,

It’s a great sign for him and for Indian cricket. Hopefully, he will go from strength to strength from here.

It will tough for both the teams, it will be an interesting day’s cricket.

In the last five years, we have scored hundreds in all parts of the world and we are pretty confident that we can play in any conditions that are given to us.

What happened to their key players is unfortunate.

I expect this wicket to last much better than the last two. Anything more than 250 runs will be a good score.

If they are losing a lot of games due to weather then there is some sense to do that. If the PCB seriously feels that they are losing games due to weather they should bring...

If you don’t ask for the best [of them], you don’t get it.

It’s not a nice way to lose the match. We were always behind on the D/L method and after Butt and Malik put on a brilliant partnership we were left to play the catching game.

If you are quick, accurate and can swing the ball around, you always pose problems.

The way we’ve won this series is heartening.

We are very happy to have won the first two matches. But we are hoping that once a batsman gets set, he carries on to make a good score.

It was not that a single performance lifted us. It was a hard fight and we played good cricket. But we can’t slip up as there is still a lot left in the series.

We expected them to go for such flat pitches to blunt our bowlers.

It was a great professional performance from our team. We had four run outs in Pakistan innings that was fantastic. The boys were confident after our bowlers did well and restricted Pakistan to 265 on...

We have rested him as a precaution. Hopefully, he would be fit to play.

It will be interesting to see how they go in the winter in the sub-continent. That will be a good test for them,

We batted really poorly after lunch. England played well right through the test, they kept the pressure on. I congratulate them. They played some very good cricket.

We will like a few more runs in the top order. In the first two games we could have got a few more runs but it is a seven-match series and we hope to correct...
