John Buchanan Batting Quotations

We were in control in the first few days with our batting and that's how we wanted to stay, ... We had set ourselves up to try and have a range of options as the day wore on so that if bad weather did eventuate, we were still in control of what we wanted to do. We didn't get ourselves into that position.

Whenever you look at a game I am always reminded of a Bill Lawry quote that you should always add two wickets on and then re-assess the game. If we were to do that then I would say that it's evenly poised on a pretty good batting wicket.

It's a long haul, but it's a good batting wicket. There is three days to go. Our job is to resurrect the ship, and hopefully if we can get a lead, we can put them in a position where they have to make some running in the game.
