"I have only played two Tests and those were against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh. When you play Test cricket, you obviously want to test yourself against the best and I'm relishing the prospect of bowling against the likes of Australia if the opportunity comes," said Johnson who took five for 49 off 21 overs to bowl Bangladesh out for 152 on the third day of the second Test.

Johnson was happy with the wicket at the MA Aziz Stadium.

"It had a bit in it. It had bounce. So I could actually target short stuff and bowl at their weakness," said the 28-year-old.

Johnson, who had to cut short his honeymoon to join the England squad as replacement of injured paceman James Anderson, said he was already planning to make up for that missed scope.

"My wife and I will be going away in January," said the Middlesex quick.

Former England skipper Nasser Hussain was England's other hero on day three and missed out on a hundred by just five runs. But he insists he had no regrets as the team came first.

"We were under strict instructions to bat in a way so that we don't have to play on the fourth morning. I got enough time to get to that hundred but couldn't make it. But I don't mind because England are in a strong position," said Hussain.

The Essex right-hander was also impressed with the wicket and thought that the Bangladesh team would be better off playing on similar tracks.

"It was a true cricket wicket. The one in Dhaka was rather poor. It can only benefit the Bangladeshis if they prepare more such wickets."

Hussain was satisfied with the way he batted in both innings of this Test.

"My timing was perfect. In the first innings, we were three wickets down in quick time and with an in-experienced middle-order, I had to dig in. In the second innings, I batted more freely. Both innings' gave me satisfaction as I could contribute in a way as was required by the team."
