“Our focus is on playing better cricket than Australia in this series and if we can really beat them at home it will be a comprehensive beating of Australia home and away,". "That's something that we really want to achieve. They were able to do it against us for a period of time and we feel that we're capable of doing it but it's going to be tough work. It's a sign of the success that we've had if we do get there [to No. 1]. We basically can look at ourselves and say we've earned that ranking through good results, through winning on pretty much every continent over the last period of time. That's a really good, satisfying feeling for any team, for any player”
Dream on. Wishful thinking doesn’t always come true. 2-1 away victory was a flash in the pan. A storm in the cup of tea. Last 2 series results in SA read 0-3 and 1-2 for SA. This would be no different. 2-1 to Australia and Achettup, our bet begins today. You see Ponting is gonna swarm Smith out of his feet and regain the lost glory. Bingo!! Go Aussies.
