Jamieson further added that he has been lucky enough to play against the Indian team in favourable conditions and he feels that the ball has rolled a few times in his favour. He elaborated:

When we have played at home, we have often operated with four-seamers, I have been able to get the fruits of the hard work of the other three guys. It’s just that I have been lucky enough to play against India a few times in favourable conditions, and I believe, the ball has rolled a few times in my favour also. I know that will not always be the case and there will be challenges ahead.”
