Steven Finn has revealed that he will try to live in the moment after making a major contribution to England's eight-wicket victory over Australia.

The pace bowler took eight wickets in a man-of-the-match display on his first Test appearance in two years, and the Middlesex man has admitted that he will enjoy the moment after helping England move into a 2-1 advantage in the series.

The 26-year-old told Sky Sports News: "I try to appreciate every moment that I wear the England cap and shirt. The crowd was incredible, so thank you to them.

"The dark times teach you to enjoy the highs a little bit more. To be here at the moment and help win a Test match for England is a great feeling.

"I feel good at the moment with the ball in my hand, but who knows what might happen in the future? I'm happy and glad to be playing for England again."

Finn has now taken 98 wickets in 24 Test matches for England.
