[laughs]

He said, "It's not..." [laughs] He said, uh, "It's not a 230 pitch." And I said, "No, I've given you 10 batters.

We bat all the way down to number 10.

I've given you 10 batters.

230, regardless of the wicket, is what we're looking for.

If we look for 230, I'll be happy with 210." And he said...

And then after the, this is the first game, uh, when we come out after that chat, comes out and, um, I said, "Sh- should we just send..." One of our lower hitters, a very good hitter of the ball, he, well, he doesn't waste any time, so he's your six, seven ball impact player.

... um, if you're giving any advice to a young boy or girl to improve and increase their power hitting, what would that be?

[laughs]

"No, that's the guy I want.

That's the guy I want.

I wanna put my hand up." And so you need to talk to the owners first, say, "Look, we've planned this over the last month, couple of months.

These are the guys we really wanna go for.

These are the budgets that we wanna get, go up to." Uh, but the, the...

But what about building a team when you've got so little time together? These guys and girls will turn up five minutes before it starts and you're into it.

Mm.

Because you're gonna play so many games against so many different oppositions.

For me, Sri Lanka, they ain't got that power.

They haven't, they haven't got every base covered.

Yeah.

To win a World Cup, you need those guys who you go, "Damn, he could do...

He could just take us apart."

Or if he's going to get hit, get hit of good lengths.

He played well.

He played well.

It was a serious inning.

Yeah, yeah.

That was...

You know, it's...

Yeah, I agree.
