"We
are here to play aggressive cricket, though you never get used to the amount
of people in India, and the kind of support the game has is great."
"Winning is a habit and I would like to keep it that way. We are geared
up to play on any sort of pitches. We have thought of a plan and we can
play according to it. There is no reason why we cannot win here."
"I don't think there's been a war of words." |

a yes and a no. Yes, because of the knowledge he has about the Australian
players, the way they play, their strokes and the mental aspect; and no,
because he's spreading knowledge around." |
