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.

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.

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.
