Quotable Quotes

"It was tough going, a real grind, and credit to them. It was some real quality bowling. I thought we were just about through that." Aaron Finch 9/10/18

"That's my opinion: we've either got to say, 'it's all out there, warts and all', or put out what he recommended we should do going forward, because to me, that's the key. It's about what we can do in the future to make the game better, not necessarily what we've done wrong in the past." Mark Taylor, talking about the review of Australian cricket culture. (2/9/18)
