The last decision going our way helped us immensely. The partnership between Daniel [Vettori] and Brendon [McCullum] has probably put us back in the match. Being 200 for 6 at the end of the day's play would have favoured Pakistan, but 270 for 6, I think it's pretty even

I've been watching these guys make the same mistakes for 10 years. For me, there's only two players who get back and across to play fast bowling. That's Brendon McCullum and Ross Taylor. The rest put their front foot down the track and just about get their heads knocked off. I'd tell them don't hang you...

In New Zealand, cricket is a small game and you don’t have much support, but here it’s amazing and you feel at home. I hope we have presented them (fans) a good Diwali gift
It's something we've definitely recognised but if you look at the actual line-up there's some real match-winners with the likes of Brendon McCullum and Ross Taylor, and Scott Styris brings a lot of experience ... So, while we don't have the rankings we'd like, I'd still back those guys to come in and do...
Obviously in South Africa we didn't have any home games, but to play in front of forty, fifty thousand screaming fans is a fantastic experience, and it's great to be a part of that. Hopefully, they'll all be out again and this time we won't disappoint them.
There is talk of perceived shortcomings - if that's the case you cope with that ... It is far better to have a coach with John Wright's skills and know-how than someone else who might have that [an ability to organise] and very little else. Currently our batting is a problem. We have the raw talent with...

Kevin is a world class player and he will surely be missed. Having said that, we have a number of world class players like Anil Kumble, Rahul Dravid, Jacques Kallis and Ross Taylor in the team, who can deliver the goods
Some people may have noticed that Ross Taylor wore a black armband on Saturday during the semifinal win over Pakistan ... Ross has got a lot of family back in Samoa and whilst I don’t think he has had any tragedies, they have had to be moved to higher ground to get away from it all. It’s affected him qu...
But the batsmen all boast pretty good statistics. Grant Elliott and Martin Guptill are averaging nearly 50 and Jesse Ryder, Ross Taylor and Brendon McCullum have had great seasons in the past.
There is also the exciting prospect of playing alongside [New Zealand internationals] Jacob Oram and Ross Taylor – both of whom are prominent international players in all forms of the game – who will be available for the Twenty20 matches.
