'I just want to ... '
Preparation was good. I would have liked to stay longer at the T20 World Cup. We played one warm-up game and spent a lot of time socialising.
I just want to support Faf this season, help him out and the youngsters. There is no better time for cricket in USA. The USA team did well in the World Cup as well, this should be good. After the World Cup, I had 5 days to myself which I spent in New York, and then joined up with the team.
