convert SRA file into forward and reverse fastq files

Question

[sunna_j]

I have downloaded .sra data from the SRA (Study SRP022224, Run SRR848976) with SRA Toolkit. I tried to convert it into the fastq files with fastq-dump, but I am not getting two files (one forward, one reverse). I'm just getting one fastq-file. What is my fault?

Get the fastq files directly from EBI-ENA.
