Yeah, we'd sorted the disciplinaries and the fines before that.
Did you think you'd be sacked?
It was definitely playing through my mind, definitely.
Like I said, thankfully I'm just playing cricket for England now and I can concentrate on what we've got going forward.
As a captain, I know that I've made a mistake and that's not setting the example.
So me as a player and a leader now, I've got to try and take this team forward and see what we can do over the next coming weeks and months.
Did you consider resigning?
No, it never came into my mind.
I left that decision to the hierarchy.
Look, if they'd have sacked me from being captain, then I'd have been perfectly fine with it as long as I was still playing cricket for England.
Do you feel like you're lucky to still be in the job?
Probably slightly, yeah.
Like I say, even if I had have been sacked, I'd have held my hands up and said, look, I made the mistake and I'd have been perfectly fine with getting sacked from the job as captain as long as I was still playing cricket.
I just thought that they were a better side than us.
They played much better cricket than us.
But you personally?
No, definitely not.
I thought it had all gone by, to be honest.
I didn't think it would ever come out.
