"But we needed to be positive and it later became like any other pitch," he said.
In recent times, Karthik and Jaffer have complimented each other well at the top of the order and their big opening stands in Cape Town, Dhaka and Nottingham are enough to suggest that the pair jells well.
"Every series we have played till now, we have got a century stand, be it South Africa, Bangladesh or England. So that is phenomenal. We need to give the team a good start so that the middle order can consolidate," the Tamil Nadu batsman said.
Karthik said he had worked hard to overcome his lacunae and felt happy about his success at international level.
"I think, I have done a good job till now. I have worked on areas I was weak at in domestic cricket. Now to be here in England and score a couple of fifties gives me a good feeling," he said. |
