Gary Kirsten Quotations

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.

They are the best players in the country and I believe they are strong fighters. They have to prove that now.

I hope the tournament continues because there's no doubt we'll be back.

Sachin is the greatest role model I've ever met.
