evidence saw tough tv
It's a tough one, we can only go on the evidence we saw on TV and you can't really say.
against best bowlers challenge glenn huge might nearly pace taken wickets
I want to challenge myself against the best and the Australians are the best. Glenn McGrath is a huge loss. The other pace bowlers haven't taken nearly as many wickets as Glenn and that might be to our advantage.
batting becomes bit goes good
It's a wicket that goes around a bit and then becomes a good batting wicket.
good ourselves
We have put ourselves in a good position.
against baggy black caps challenge danger days define forward guys hard huge instead looking means mentally nice playing prepared series seriously taking
We've got a new challenge with the series against New Zealand. It'll be nice to see some black caps out there instead of the baggy green. So we're looking forward to that challenge. There is the danger that we've been playing some very hard cricket, but we've got 10 days off, which means the guys can go away and get mentally prepared for New Zealand. It's a huge series for us. I think it's a series that could define our season. We're going to be taking it very seriously - it's a very big series for us.

The momentum seems to be with us and Australia is feeling the pressure.

I think a lot of sides would have left it maybe a little bit earlier.
bad batting needed patient position strong waiting
Fortunately Ashy and I managed to get one going but we just needed to be patient and keep building, waiting for the bad ball. Fortunately it's put us in a strong position after batting first at the SCG, which is what you need to do.
bat cent coming confident hopefully next per today tomorrow
I had my first full-blooded throw-downs today and it's coming along. Hopefully I'll have a bat tomorrow and the next day. I'm pretty confident that I'll be 100 per cent fit.
guy pressure tall
He's put us under pressure right through the series. He's a tall guy that made all our batters play.
rather seat
I'd rather be in our seat than theirs.
cent confident injury per
I am pretty confident I will be 100 per cent fit. I don't know if it's an injury that you can go in at about 90 per cent fit.
definitely
I never thought it would come and definitely not so quickly.
