A selection of reactions from the Australia and New Zealand teams after the World Cup final
ESPNcricinfo staff29-Mar-2015You always dream about this as a kid and to have it finally happen especially at home at the MCG is an amazing feeling
.I’ll tell you what, I couldn’t think of a better team to sit on the sidelines and watch.
.I was just hoping we didn’t lose another wicket because I would have had to walk out there and I was pretty nervous. That was as good as it gets, home final, MCG, 93,000, it doesn’t get better than that.
.I get tossed the ball when the skipper wants me to bowl and normally it’s in the power play. I like that job. Today it worked out for us. It can be tough sometimes.
.New Zealand have been a great team throughout the whole tournament. They’ve really set the benchmark, but I think we came hard today and that really led to this performance.
.The crowd support we’ve got and how much all of Australia appreciate this effort has made it an enjoyable four weeks. I’ll try to have a beer with everyone in the place.
.We obviously weren’t able to lift the trophy but the brand of cricket and the entertainment that we’ve been able to give the people throughout our country but also throughout the world is something we can be immensely proud of.
.Might give it back to Warney.
.That’s why I love them.
