Jacob Bethell: It was pretty incredible to watch (Shepherd's knock). I don't think he middled many balls there but he was still smacking it two tiers out, shows the power of the man and it was nice for him to do that. And for TD (Tim David) to be at the other end.. to have that much power is pretty cool. The chats were just making sure we keep hitting down the ground and react to everything else. The pitch felt it wasn't bouncing as much, I have not obviously batted on it this season, the feedback from Virat was it was a slightly better wicket with the new ball. It was pretty nice, there wasn't much swing and that made it (batting) easier. It (batting with Kohli) is pretty cool, even in Delhi.. just to match his intensity and today was lovely to spend some more time with him. When I walked off I said 210, I am happy with 3 more than that, there was a stumble in the middle and hopefully our spinners can enforce a bit of that on them in the middle overs, but for Romario to come out and strike like that has put us on a great total.
