guess last sitting
I guess sitting here right now we've had the last laugh.
ahead both creating game hard major mean nations playing teams
The game is about creating pressure. He's probably come out ahead in this game. But the whole series, two major nations competing, we've come here and we mean business. Both teams are playing the game very hard and very tough.
australian bothers conclusion team
The conclusion that we have come to as a team is that it bothers Warne tremendously that he is not the Australian captain.
bit carried celebrate early enjoy guys obviously tonight winning
The guys will obviously celebrate a bit tonight because it's important to enjoy winning but we are not going to get carried away, it's still very early in the series.
massive tough worked year
This is massive for him. Life's all about opportunities and he's had a really tough year being up and down but through performances he's worked his way back into the squad.
awesome occasion touring
The MCG is an awesome occasion for any touring team.
contribute involved last matches nice players seen team winning
The last two matches have seen the whole team involved and it's nice to have a team where all the players contribute to winning the game.
cup experiment five might next playing six
The ICC might not be too happy, but I think the experiment should end now. If we're not going to be playing with super-subs in the World Cup next year, why should we keep playing with them for the next five or six games?
sure
I'm sure those performances are just around the corner.
australia compares cricket greatest match matches repeat struggle test tied west
Incredible. We'd struggle to repeat a match like that. I think it compares with the tied Test between Australia and the West Indies at Adelaide as one of the greatest matches in cricket history.
happen moan sit
It's not our place to sit here and moan and groan about those things. We've just got to go out and make things happen for us.
