There have been little tiny things where England have outplayed us, ... With 20 runs more, we might have won the last Test. And even at Old Trafford, if we had contained England to 25 fewer runs we probably would have won. |
There's a lot of thick green grass on it, and it's pretty hard. |
They are basically now the second best side in the world and it takes a bit of time to adapt. It is different when you approach a series and suddenly your own expectations and everyone else's expectations are that you are going to win. |
This ground has special memories for me. I have never lost a Test match here and there have been some pretty special individual moments for me here as well, |
Those guys will be knocking on the door and they've got some form as well. I reckon Shane Harwood is a real chance. He's been bowling unbelievably fast this year. Everyone who's played against him is surprised by his pace, his hostility, his aggression - and no one's seen him. |
We wish you were English |
We're quietly confident but a couple of quick wickets early and the West Indies are right in the game, |
We've had a pretty good day, I think we're just slightly ahead, |
Whatever it is, the pressure or wanting it too much, I don't know. |
When we go to South Africa it is going to be pretty hostile there. They are going to rip into us and nail us. They have to expect Australian crowds to nail them but the racist stuff is not on. I am disappointed that has happened, if it has, and hopefully it stops. |
When we go to South Africa, it is going to be pretty hostile there. They are going to rip into us and try to nail us down. |
Where it came from I don't know. But if people are trying to unsettle me personally and the team all together through the newspapers, it won't work. We'll be looking into this article in particular and taking it from there. |
Yep. And I'm sorry for that. It's cost me lots of stuff. At the end of the day, it's cost me probably - a chance to captain Australia. |
You can't just bowl leg break after leg break when it's not turning a long way, |
You look at the form of them since the Ashes series, they have won only one Test match. |
