australia champion harder killer knock land obviously sign sort titanic
We are obviously pretty down. It's been a titanic struggle. We sort of knock them but we can never get them down. Then Australia come back harder at us. That is the sign of a champion side. Just when we think we will land the killer blow, they come back harder at us all the time.
australia harder killer knocked land sort tend
We've sort of knocked them but we could never get them down and then Australia have come back harder at us. Just when we think we're going to land the killer blow, they tend to come back. When you play under that sort of pressure, something had to give.
appealing good hit instructed obvious personal player problem spirit stand within
I've got no problem with that. It's within the spirit of the game. He thought it was an obvious deflection. There was a lot of appealing and histrionics going on and he hit it and walked. That's fine. I've never instructed a player to stand or walk, that's a personal preference. He hit it. Good catch. And off he went.
huge last
We feel we need another 200 and if we can get that ... we are set up for a huge last day.

You ask me for a name to pull out the hat to replace Gibbs if he gets seriously injured tomorrow. Not one name jumps out at you, because there hasn't been a guy that has actually stood up and put his hand up.

You can miss one player, but it's tough when you're missing four.

We want to get some momentum going in this last game against Australia.

We don't really want to mention his name any more.
best either house order possibly prepared side thinking
We've prepared either way. I'm thinking that they wouldn't go in with two spinners on that, but who knows? That's up to them. We are going to put our house in order and try to put the best side out that we possibly can.
again decisions felt few
To be honest, again we felt we were on the back end of a few decisions that didn't go our way, and I am disappointed.
available bat best bit easier familiar guess position quite selection slot
I guess it made our selection poser a little bit easier for us, but unfortunately he (Kemp) is not available for selection. Kallis will slot in at four, the world's best player, he'll bat in a position that he's quite familiar with.
bit guess selection
I guess it made our selection poser a little bit easier.
