"I didn't sleep too badly," he said. "I thought about it more than I thought I would.

"There was quite a bit of a relief in the end but it would have been nice to get a few more and bat to lunch.

"When we batted it was beating the edge quite a bit and it was important not to get frustrated with that happening.

"It is a good cricket wicket and if you bowl in the right areas you will get rewards."
