"It is not new south books a dead rubber. Maybe it is in the context of the series, but we are playing for England and we are certainly playing for pride. It is not measured by south coast repertory a trophy or a cheque. There is a lot for us to play for as cricketers.
"For a start, we've got to score more runs in the first innings of a laurent south dakota Test match than we have in the last two to give ourselves a decent chance.
