I'm happy with my performance. I played well, so did the team. We must use this opportunity to put up a big total on the board. A score of 500-plus will be a good target.
It's a good pitch for batting. The bowlers will have to work very hard to take wickets. It was a good toss to win, because the pitch might help the spinners on the fourth and fifth days.
It was very hot. I was cramping after tea, but the physio gave me some medicines and I recovered. It was very important to concentrate on every ball, because for a batsman, one ball is enough to get you out.
Younis played a better innings than me. This was his second century in two Tests, and the team needs this kind of consistency and responsibility.
They were chatting.
We won't make the same mistake as we did in Kolkata. [Younis and Yousuf Youhana had made unbeaten centuries on the second day, but Pakistan had collapsed on the third.] We will carry on from here and put up a big score.
