Both wickets can take ordsprog

en Both wickets can take a little bit of turn, particularly Adelaide, having had such a dry summer. The ball may turn a little bit more there, and the (shorter) square of the wicket boundaries also probably suit a few of our batsmen. But we are still going to have to play our best cricket to stretch Australia to the limit. We did that well in Sydney and we know going into the finals series that's the game we have to play.

en It is the prerogative of the home side to prepare the pitch. We are ready to play on any wicket but such wickets are not good for cricket.

en This is what we saw their batsmen do in Australia. Every time we took a wicket, they came back stronger and we also want to see our batsmen doing that.

en I waited all summer to turn pro until after the Walker Cup (two weeks ago). That was my whole goal this summer, to play in the Walker Cup, get the Cup back for the United States. After we did that, it was an easy decision to turn pro and not play in the Amateur.

en It does look like a good wicket. I think it'll be a fairly traditional Sydney cricket wicket. It'll be unlikely that we'll make any other changes.

en You've got to tweak your game to the rule changes. Now it's a flag if you turn into a guy while trying to make a play. It didn't used to be that way. I got flagged one time for turning my head. 'You didn't turn it away,' the official said. Now why would I want to turn away from a ball that was coming my way?

en [But Western Australia battled back in the final session, taking four wickets, including two important late strikes from Brett Dorey after Victoria had seemed to be cruising at 2 for 79.] We're in a pretty good position, ... We've still got six wickets in the shed and less than a hundred to score and one of the wickets to fall was a nightwatchman. We've still got some good batsmen and we'll be looking to be positive in the morning.

en If you're going to play the top team, you might as well play them in the first round. We've got to limit their transition game ? and turn it into a half-court game ? and try not to let their defensive pressure get to us.

en It's been played in really good spirit. Everybody's clapped everyone's runs, wickets, clapped people off. I think I've been one of the most aggressive players to play. I like throwing the ball at batsmen's heads and things like that all the time and I enjoy that, but you can also play in the right spirit.

en We have some confidence from the last game in Sydney but they (Adelaide) are 10 to 15% stronger at home in Adelaide.

en The thing we have to be concerned with is our turnovers, especially down there. A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. If you told me before the series started [that] we'd have an 18-turnover game and two with 17 and we were going to be 2-2, I'd have said that was a stretch. We can't go down there and turn the ball over 17, 18 times and expect to win. We want to open up the floor, but we have to rely on our decisions.

en Our batsmen can play Shane Warne out. Previously McGrath has been at the other end and he is almost impossible to score off. Naturally batsmen have tried to go after Warne a bit because he is seen as easier to get away than McGrath. Not having him will affect how Australia plays because he and Warne bowl so well together. Batsmen can now try to see out Warne and go after the bowler at the other end.

en We'll play a big role in how the game is going to turn out. They like to run the ball down your throat and then run play-action [passes] off of it. We need to get them off the field as quick as possible and get the ball back to our offense.

en I was trying to get that one down quicker [in the first], and he made that play and you're like, 'OK,' and you try to regroup and have a good second at-bat -- that's why it's the big leagues. It's a straight mental battle. It's tough enough to square the ball up, and if you're doing it and not getting any hits, you don't have anywhere else to turn.
