We are very happy with our performance and we want to improve it further in the second test.
bad consider innings pick poor quickly record remaining second target thinking wickets
No doubt, our first target would be to pick up the remaining wickets quickly but we are already thinking about the second innings. I think the second day was not too bad for us if you consider our first innings total. But all know that we have a very poor record in second innings.
adam batting bit bottom corner deal double game great inevitably involved learn lee line second seen tail team test took work
We have seen how someone in their team inevitably contributes when needed. Our tail can learn a great deal from Gillespie. Not only his double century, he was also involved in a big partnership with Adam Gilchrist in the first Test when they were in a corner and Brett Lee also took the game away from us with his batting in the second innings. The bottom line is we all need to work a bit more harder.

It would be really great if we can carry the tempo into our next home assignment against Australia next month. We know how tough it would be against the World champions but if we can carry the good work to the next series, I think it will be a real success for us.
believe easy isolate last merit ourselves outside perform slept standard tried
Even I slept well last night. We actually tried to take it easy so that we didn't feel much pressure. We tried to isolate ourselves from the outside world and told each other that this is the standard we are going to believe in. We are not doing something unusual. We have the merit to perform like this.

We feel now that we can push any team in the world. We are showing improvement which is most important. As Dav has said, we have to be more consistent with our batting, but we have improved.

account against aware bowling came easy good guys hot matters played series
We came into this series right after the one against Sri Lanka, so it was not easy for the guys and you are all aware about the prevalent hot and humid conditions. I think that the Kenyan bowling was also good. If we take all the matters into account you must say that we have played a very good series.
