"I've always taken my fitness seriously – whether it's county or Test cricket, you have to be able to bowl 20 to 25 overs a day. "Myself and Murali [the spin bowler Muttiah Muralitharan] could not keep going for ever, and the youngsters have to learn, but if they called me I'd have to think about it." Vaas's bowling on Tuesday was an object lesson in the virtues of old-fashioned swing and movement. He took five for 22 in 10 overs as Northamptonshire bowled Glamorgan out on a good wicket for just 72, and has already taken two for 6 from 11 in the visitors' second innings. Source : Guardian Read more: <a href="http://www.cricturf.com/newsbox/latest/468-vaas-ready-to-face-england-at-lords-if-slc-call.html#ixzz1O1h2xLMD" target="_blank">http://www.cricturf.com/newsbox/latest/468-vaas-ready-to-face-england-at-lords-if-slc-call.html#ixzz1O1h2xLMD</a> </blockquote>
