“I didn’t take my pads off, I was just sat in my chair. I actually thought someone had got out first ball when everyone started shouting.
“Everyone just started shouting: ‘No ball,’ and: ‘You’re in.’ It was bizarre. I just had to get back into the frame of mind. There was obviously a lot of cheering and I could have seen the funny side of it. But I said to myself: ‘Get back into the frame of mind, don’t look at it as an opportunity, just try and be not out at the end of the day.’”
