Prior in determined mood
10 January 2008
Prior is considering a switch to specialist batsman in a bid to add to his collection of 10 Test and 21 one-day international caps.
"Breaking back into that England team is something that occupies my mind, but I don't think it is realistic to be worrying about it this summer," said Prior.
"Realistically my goal is to get on a tour next winter and the only way I am going to do that is by performing well in the games that I am playing."
Former Sussex colleague Tim Ambrose has succeeded Prior as first-choice for the Test team and competing for one place is familiar to both men.
"The thing about Tim and I, when we were at Sussex, was that there was big rivalry and we always said to each other that, plain and simple, whoever was playing the best should play," Prior added.
"But we can help each other get better and better. He has got the gloves at the moment and I shall be working very, very hard to keep pushing him and making sure he knows I'm still around."
