“After the injury [in Sydney], I had my doubts but I managed to play well in Buenos Aires, and hopefully the problems are over.”
Carlos Moya
“I've always played well in Sydney. Hopefully, I can get some matches there under my belt before going into Melbourne.”
Lleyton Hewitt
“I'm looking forward to him playing an even bigger part down in Sydney now.”
Ricky Ponting
“It's better to be top than chasing it. NSW managed to beat us on the fourth day in Sydney after winning the toss with the whole Test side, so I wouldn't mind playing them without the Test side, put it that way.”
Darren Lehmann
“It was only cool to have blond hair and be a surfer chick [in Sydney]. I could learn how to surf, but I still looked Italian. It took me a long time to realize that was a good thing.”
Natalie Imbruglia
“It's not so much about the wow factor now. We're more and more produce-driven in Sydney, which to me seems a good thing.”
Neil Perry
