No matter how tired we are after the tours to India and now here we have to find a way of drawing ourselves closer for the final 10 days. It is our target to reach the final and to win it.

It was a good win for us at the end of the day. It gives us a bit of confidence going into the next game against Australia.
african believe certain chance few hopefully opportunity produce risks run south team
It won't be 'this is the only chance you're ever going to get', it will be a run (of games) and hopefully he can take the opportunity and can produce something. As a South African team I believe we need to take a few more risks with certain selections going forward.

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.

The conclusion that we have come to as a team is that it bothers Warne tremendously that he is not the Australian captain.

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.
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?

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.

The MCG is an awesome occasion for any touring team.

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.

I think it's a wicket the batsmen would like to roll up and keep, but the bowlers would like to bury.

I think it's great to have a character, I certainly love having characters in my team and Nelly is certainly one of them.
