"When we get to Bangladesh its a crisp begin, and everyone needs to do what we finished in Sri Lanka again - which is to play as a group, play for the individuals ... to safeguard the title."while England - Kevin Pietersen separated, after his worldwide retirement - will have impact in theindian Head Alliance this spring, the Windies will again be overall spoken to.
