There is a big winter season ahead. The West Indies tour is going to be very long, the T20 series against Bangladesh is also at the end of the year. Then the T20 World Cup and then the Ashes series, then the next 12 months are going to be very big and while staying with Australia, I want to keep myself mentally and physically ready for it.
