“Bracken has got a great record here and he'll bowl well on the wicket.”
Ricky Ponting
“If you manage to get on top of him when he's bowling over the wicket then he'll bowl around the wicket at you,”
Mike Gatting
“It was one those bad days for them [the wicket takers]. I think they bowled a bit too short, but all credit to them. They bowled splendidly well throughout the tournament [the World Cup].”
Sourav Ganguly
“We needed another wicket at that stage (95-6), but could not get it. We could have probably bowled a bit better in that game.”
Rahul Dravid
“I'm the master of the wicket!”
Gerard Way
“Credit to them, they played very well. It was not an easy wicket to bat on early on - but they played like real champions.”
“It was a seaming wicket, plenty of moisture there. We take the game plan in of playing two spinners, obviously hoping to bat first and have them bowling on day five.”
