Michael Vaughan Team Quotations

He just controlled everything in a measured fashion although he obviously had harsh words to say in the sanctuary of the dressing room. His team on the field always appeared to have a huge amount of respect for him.

My warmest congratulations to you, the England cricket team and all in the squad for the magnificent achievement of regaining the Ashes.

To beat Australia you need to have a good team performance but you also need individual brilliance,

You have to keep building and it's so important we keep getting young players pushing the team and making sure everybody stays honest,

It was an epic game. Australia are a very hard team to beat.

The one-day team is a little bit below the Test team at the minute, but we are building for 2007 and the World Cup. As a team and players, we had a lot of self-belief that we could turn things around (after first Test defeat at Lord's), and we also have a lot of self-belief we can do very well in the World Cup come 2007.

That's just Nasser for you. He fights really hard when people have a dig at him. He's had great input into the team and it was a really important innings for us.

This is the most exciting part of the winter and South Africa are a good team who will provide a good test for us.

It's a summer I'm looking forward to, because we're playing against the best team there has ever been

It?s going to be extremely difficult to go out there and win, but this team has shown that it reacts when it is thrown a challenge.

It was a fantastic game of cricket and we came within a wicket of going 2-1 up. I'm very pleased with the team and the way we dominated the whole match against a tough Australian side. Three weeks ago we were written off and 5-0 we kept hearing. There are a few tired bodies and minds on both teams but it's great the way this series has got the nation talking about it.

I'm thrilled. I'm proud of this team. If we'd gone 2-0 down in the series, against a team like Australia, we couldn't have come back from there.

If you've beaten the leading team once, you can beat them again -- that's the next challenge.

He's a huge member of our team and without him in the last year we wouldn't have won a lot of the games so he'll continue to be a big player for us.

I don't see any reason why this young team should not go out and play the same game they have done over the past few weeks, go out and enjoy it and give it their all because that's all they can do and see where it takes us, ... This week is a great opportunity for the team to cement their place in the history of the game of cricket and it's great that we are in a position to do that.
