“I’m surprised we didn’t get bigger scores but you have to credit Pakistan. When they were ahead, they didn’t allow us to come back. We’re a lot better at the end of the 3rd Test, than at the start of the first. Test cricket is difficult by its nature. I’ve got great faith in our players but this is an eye opener.” Strauss
