It was a good pitch - a great cricket wicket. It should have been an after-tea day-four game, really. Both teams didn't play as well as they should have.

It's not a great (pitch). There's a lot of cracks in it, but it's not a 114 (wicket). It's a 250 (wicket).

He is a bloke who can win a World Cup for Australia - he is that good.

The pitch had a lot of moisture on it. There was a lot of movement off the wicket, more than there was in the air.

I have played a lot of cricket over the last 12 months and I feel that a rest would be beneficial for me at this stage of my career. I have toured regularly with England over the past ten years and this decision will also give me an opportunity to spend more time with my children.

It's always good to get a wicket in your first over,
