What if he doesn't get it this time, you might argue? "Read the first sentence" without the hint of a smile, need I say more?

Only few more?

"If we play like we did in the practice matches we can expect to win Tests" he added.

I say, expect more, a lot more. A Dav more!

But, wait, Dav wants to win now, atleast one!
And, you know, if he wants something, he gets it. No ifs or buts. Period.

Without the hint of a smile, hey you, yes you, are you ready too?
