We were just joking about it before that even the prime minister had a few weeks off over Christmas while Ricky was busy making a century in Melbourne and a century in each innings in Sydney.

I don't know who's going to get coach of the year, but he certainly deserves it. I don't know how many coach of the year awards he's received, but this is definitely the best job he's done.

We were where we needed to be at the half, but it's like it's fools gold when you come in here and feel that way. They really just worked the clock and took shots. We had them missing shots and they just went and got them.

It would be nice to be able to do that here (in Adelaide) but somehow the 50-over game's a little bit different so I'll jut be trying to emulate what I've been doing in the ING Cup for a number of years.

That's a tough call to make, especially on a critical call like that.

I'll tell you what, that was big. It gave them a bigger gap and when you play a team with an offense like that, you can't really give them a lot of points and expect to win.
