00:00A lot gets made of the way they go about things and the way they spend their time when they're
00:04not playing, which I have no issue with, really.
00:07One thing I will say, there was a story that came out from, I think, Ravi Shastri and Kevin
00:11Peterson that was just not true about the fact they'd only practised once.
00:15When I saw them in Pakistan, they practised hard.
00:18They got stuck in.
00:19It wasn't the fact that they weren't practising was why we didn't perform, but what I was
00:23pleased with, actually, we live in a world now where anyone can say anything and people
00:27run with it.
00:28I actually felt that after the Ravi Shastri, Kevin Peterson story, the English media turned
00:34around and said, no, actually, that's not true, and actually were able to sort of quell
00:38or quash something that wasn't right.
