It's not a tactic or anything like that. If we see it, we appeal if we think it's out. I don't think we are over-appealing at all. To me it's just a part of the game. |
It's very painful, it feels like I've got barbed wire in my chest every time I run, |
Maybe that thing called pressure. We've all got this thing - the Ashes, |
One of the heartening things is when the great players miss out a few times, it shows they're human and it shows people like me that we all have doubts and we can all lose a bit of confidence, |
Personally, I'm very disappointed because I went there to play cricket. I don't think you can ever say they're cheapened runs in Test cricket. |
That's not being arrogant, that's just a fact, ... With the experience and the statistics we've got in our change room we'll win Test matches. |
The issue has come up throughout the series. I don't want to delve too deep but cricket has a great tradition of 12th men being bowlers or whatever, but generally the English are much smarter than Australians, and in the day of professionalism I suppose it is just getting the best out of the resources available within the rules. ... I would be surprised if there was not a twist left in this game. We are hanging on by the skin of our teeth. |
The main thing [we got] out of this game, it might sound silly, was a bit of togetherness, |
The way this series has gone you never know what may happen. I wouldn't be surprised if there is another twist in the tail. |
There are similarities here, |
They had a sustained fast-bowling attack that I haven't experienced since probably 1993 against the West Indies, |
We are all together and can spend some time with our partners again, which is great. With this time together and in a more relaxed atmosphere, it is going to be positive for the squad. |
We can take a lot of positives from just being here in Scotland, |
We haven’t played well through this series but we've fought all the way and we're hanging in by the skin of our teeth. While you're still hanging in you're a chance to win a Test match. |
We were on receiving end of it in India, one of the most historic games of all time ... there are similarities, whether we have the capacity to pull off something like India did back in 2001 only time will tell, |
