Feeling good. I think looking at the scoreboard I’m not that happy but we have good bowlers. This looks like a 190-200 wicket, we are maybe short. We just need to bowl to our plans. I’m backing each and every bowler and myself with the ball. (On playing at Eden) Means a lot, the love I get from the fans is crazy when I’m in Kolkata. This franchise is like family to me.
