I needed everything I ordsprog

en I needed everything I could get. We probably should have got more, because the follow-on was our only real chance. Maybe if we'd been bowled out for 350, the game would still have been alive, but we played well enough to be in a position where we had to get South Africa out twice, so we needed as much cash in the bank as possible.

en The perception that the wicket was flat played a part (in the way South Africa bowled),

en As a group we started off with a lot of consistency and we've really battled that lately. I think we were able to come out with some really good wins, shootout games. But we were grabbing at skin of our teeth. Last night we really played good strong game top to bottom. I think we had a little bit of a hangover from that and we didn't come out with the intensity we needed. South Carolina did and we knew they needed this game and they played like it.

en We played really well. We bit the bullet and did the hard yards on day one and after Michael Hussey and Glenn McGrath played well on day two we knew South Africa would have to bat really well to get a decent total. We bowled well, fielded well and have dominated the first two Tests to lead 1-0.

en We needed a shakeup; we needed a change; we needed a different slant. I thought our team had a chance to win the game. I really did. If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection.

en We're expecting a very hard conTest ? South Africa will be desperate for a series win, after losing to Australia. We have never won a series against South Africa, and we have a real hunger for this series. We want to measure ourselves in South Africa, where our results have always been poor.

en It's great to be back in the Green and Gold again. I always had the self-belief that I could play for South Africa again and I just needed to get as many runs on the board as possible. All one asks for is a chance, although it is a bit harder in 20/20 cricket, but I would obviously love to play in the one-day internationals too.

en We did what we needed to do to put ourselves in better position. This was an important week. We needed these two wins to give us a chance.

en I have been driving in rallies in South Africa now for two years and actually won the South African Off-Road Championship this year. The opportunity arose to take part in the Dakar with BMW and here I am. I still have a motorcycle business in South Africa, but I see my future as a rally driver in a car. I suppose the realistic finishing position for me would be in the top 10. That is the goal.

en I was able to see it with my eyes in South Africa and I thought that I needed to come to the ground too.

en We needed another wicket at that stage (95-6), but could not get it. We could have probably bowled a bit better in that game.

en Man for man, South Africa just out-bowled, out-batted and out-fielded us. We just didn't deliver today.

en I thought I bowled a good game. That's all I could do. I figured I needed a 240-250 to beat him.

en We felt we needed to come back home and get this win. It was a much-needed win after last night. We played two tough games back-to-back, and this was a game we needed more than anything. Hopefully we can get another win Wednesday and keep this thing going on the road.

en It was the exact opposite of the way we finished against South. We stay poised and confident. If we had played that way in the fourth quarter against South and the last four minutes against Mount Vernon (58-54 loss Jan. 20), we'd be in first place. I think as low as we were after South, we needed a comeback win like this to prove to ourselves we could close out games.
