Andre Nel Quotations

We bowled well as a team but the ball went into gaps and we dropped catches. But if we can get a lead of 200 and bowl as well as we did today we should have a chance.

If they can get away with it, why can't we try and get away with it too.

I enjoy having a bit of fun with them, you've got to relate to the crowd.

He's a surprise package - you'll just have to wait and see...! He went to India with us last month, he's something a bit different.

I was pretty happy when Polly said he'd field in front of (the notorious hecklers in) Bay 13 after I'd dropped the catch because maybe that would have been a bit much, but there's only one way to prove people wrong and that is to keep bowling your heart out for your country and never to give up.

We played against each other in England, and we've been out a few times together.

The way I play cricket is to win games and do the best for the country and the team. If I happen to be ranked number one, great. But it doesn't mean anything to me as a player.

It was unfortunate, but we can still get a decent lead.

I wanted to end myself at lunchtime but we came back nicely. It was costly but I found the best way to get back.

It was costly and I let the side down badly. I've been catching the ball so sweetly all week, too. I wanted to hang myself at lunch time.

It's always nice to get the chance with the new ball and to bowl with Polly.

I've got five months of aggression saved up, and I'll try and use that in a positive manner. I'll be aggressive, but in a controlled way.

I'm man enough to say I'm a bit chicken when it comes to things that spin, and when that thing (The Claw) starts spinning, it scares the hell out of me.

I don't need to be in any more trouble, and I've got a few things to prove to a few people.

The constant pressure when you slam your foot into the ground when you bowl must have done the damage.
