For me it is all about taking wickets. We can bat on these surfaces and have done ok in the previous series for the most part. But when it comes to bowling them out we consistently fail, and once the scoreboard tilts against you it all becomes harder and the momentum slips away.

I think there is a mental thing as well. Hopefully our new thinking will make a difference there.

I really dislike the day/night game, particularly over there. The lights just have too big an effect on the ball and you are effectively playing in two separate matches at once.
