It's exciting, this part of the competition, it's nice to be in win or loss, and will be up against Chennai in few days. Obviously, it kept me challenging bowling here, but great working with Griffith, doing a lot of work and with this bowling unit which picks up wicket, makes the job lot easier to me."
