The other thing is we’ve played against a team who are number one in theworld in their own conditions.
I know there’s not too many teams who will arrive in England as prepared aswe are in terms of the competition we’ve played against and match-fitness.
All I know is the players are very determined to do well. Every time theygo out there they play for 210 million people. We’ll be ready — come thefirst game against the West Indies, we’ll be ready. I’m as confident we’lldo well as I’ve ever been.
