Coming out of the first class season back home a lot of the guys have some runs under their belt so they are just hoping to get back into the groove of things. |
I have played with Brian as captain before so this is nothing new. He's a good leader and has the respect of all his peers. |
I thought that we should have restricted them for less, we allowed the run rate to get away in the middle period when I believe we were trying too hard to make things happen and our consistency suffered because of that. |
I'm delighted about playing in my first Test even though it has been some time in the making. |
It is great to be selected in a West Indies Test squad. I've really enjoyed my time representing the West Indies at the one-day level, but Test cricket is the real test. |
It's time to play cricket. That's what we're here for. We have had our challenges in the past and this is another challenge. I'm excited about the possibilities. |
Obviously New Zealand has been playing better cricket than us but we back ourselves, if we perform well, to be very competitive against them. |
