Marcus Trescothick Good Quotations

We have just got our noses in front, although it was unfortunate losing Mike so close to the end. The morning session is crucial in the context of our first innings and maybe in the context of the game: if we bat well through to lunch we will be looking at a good score, if we lose a couple of wickets we will have to battle as long as we can.

The score they (Australia) put on the board was a good total and they put a lot of pressure on us when we batted,

If we can bat well and those two can get away they can give us a good chance,

They will score at a fast pace and we will be looking at a good score.

It was a close game between two good teams. Still two games to go, and we will do things right and try to come back stronger.

The first session tomorrow will be particularly important and we can't relax yet. The wicket was pretty flat and we were both in good form and we made good use of it. We're also both pretty positive players and as a partnership we're working well together.
