Siddhesh Lad is having a chat with Simon Doull. Says that to make his debut in on the games this season was a great moment for him after missing the first four seasons. Says that being with the team has taught him a lot, mainly their work ethics. Feels that the pitch will do something in the first innings but then dew will make it easier to bat on in the second. Says that he gets a lot of net time even though he does not feature in the playing XI, citing that every squad member is treated in the same manner.
