I had said before the match, I would have played Anderson. I was a bit surprised by the balance of the team because along with Root, India have four spinners and one seamer. Anderson gives you control. It is not that you have to keep Anderson only in the playing XI, you could have kept Ollie Robinson also, there should have been only one more fast bowler in the team.

You will have to make a little effort yourself so that the bowlers are not able to bowl consistently on their line and length. I was looking for opportunities to score runs in the match. I had some shots in my mind at that time, if the bowler bowled there continuously then he was ready to play those shots on those occasions.
