Before the Galle (first) test, I didn't really think about it, but...if I bowl as well as I bowled in this one and it's a turning wicket, then I suppose there is a chance,
The numbers have been pretty good, ... But however well I've been bowling and batting, that's irrelevant now. Now everything comes down to one match, and for me these are the situations I thrive on.
I'm not a big stats man but my stats over the last couple of years bowling on day one, two and three, stand up to any stage in my career,
You can't just bowl leg break after leg break when it's not turning a long way,
But when it's Glenn McGrath, arguably the best fast bowler in the world, you want to give him every chance to play and if that means it's a last-minute decision then it's a last-minute decision.
I think he's a class player. He's proven he's one of the best fast bowlers for as long as we've been playing and I'm sure he'll be in the World Cup and lead the attack as he always has and do well. He's a big-match player, when the World Cup comes around McGrath will take the new rock and do extremely well. I don't think there's any doubt about Glenn McGrath being there.
I think they will be disappointed they are not 2-1 up. I think the pressure is on England and not Australia. At the end of the day, they have to win. We only have to win one (of the last two tests).
He was trying to be funny but he's the one we'll probably look back at next year and I bet we'll be laughing at him like we did tonight.
All Graeme Smith did was say some ridiculous stuff.
Strauss played very well. He hung in there and toughed it out.
I think Cameron is a future Australian Test player, provided he sticks to the way he plays and doesn't try to be someone different.
It was nice to get the record in a place where it's always been difficult.
I'm just a humble cricketer with no claims to omniscience or omnipotence.
I don't know about a changing of the guard, but it might be time for changes,
