force hopefully time
We would try to play better this time and hopefully force at least for a draw.
everybody fails great hardly lies looks mental mind plays problem rather technique
He looks as if he is in need of a rest. I think there is hardly any problem in his technique and the problem rather lies in mental strength. When he plays he looks like any other great batsman in the world but then he fails to live up to the expectation. And everybody should mind that he is just 21 years old.
champions fifth moral push satisfied
I am satisfied we could push the world champions into a fifth day and that was our moral victory.
early lost match reason repeated upset wickets worried
I am upset and worried with the way we lost too many wickets in the early stage. We did it in the first match and repeated in the second. I think this was the reason we lost our way.
consistent improvement push showing team
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.

We were on the back foot loosing three quick wickets at the very onset.
confidence field riding
We will take to the field with more confidence riding on the achievements of the first Test.
lost matter obviously win
Obviously we will try to win the match...no matter we have lost the first two matches.
against expected impression nobody series team test win
When we started the series against Sri Lanka, nobody expected us to win anything. But after the first Test (against Australia) everyone had a different impression about us. I think this is our team achievement.
against assignment australia carry champions good great home next success tempo tough work
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.
against build confidence fight help team win
The much-awaited win will embolden our confidence, which will help us build a fight against any team in future.
forget losing match performing runs several start wickets
They managed to get runs even after losing several wickets while we just caved in. We did well overall, but now have to forget the first match and start performing all over again.
