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.
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.

But this one was right up there especially after we were 118 for six.

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.

I never thought it would come and definitely not so quickly.
