Cameron White of Australia Twenty20 captain, had every reason to be complacent when it came at a press conference on arrival in Cape Town. It 'appeared in front of the retail average for their national rugby team beat South Africa, the reigning World Cup Springboks 11 points in nine, and in so doing qualified for the semifinals.
Instead, he was friendly and cheerful. "It seems that the judge had a great game," White joked.
This should stop immediately endeared him to South African citizens who are recovering from seeing their rugby team will suffer the same fate for their cricket team has done six months ago, in Dhaka, and have already booked for the Future Cricket Series as a way to take revenge on Australia.
When the mounting public pressure, South African cricket hit the right spots as soon as you remove the winter break longer than 14 years. They only have three days to plot the destruction of Australia due to the timing of the Champions League. But their opposition has had the same concern, the two franchises played in the Australian race.
White sees their participation in the tournament, a plus. "It 'a good thing the real progress of the game, and tempered the competition instead of coming out to Australia to prepare a small network," he said. "It's probably not the ideal that we have come from all over the place, but at least we played some games."
David Warner is a player in Australia, which is the best use of the Champions League to make a statement with its two centuries of New South Wales, said his position threatened batsman in Twenty20. White said Warner was probably the "Star Series" and hopes to repeat some of the "good success against the Proteas, as a game memorable MCG a couple of years ago." Warner was placed 89th out of 43 balls in Australia debut against South Africa in January 2009.
Young fast bowler Patrick Cummins, who is new to the Australian side, was also impressed with seven wickets at an average of 19.42. White admitted that Cummins is not sure, either inside or outside the field, but hopes to integrate it into the side. "I saw a couple of bowl games on TV, anyone who bowls 150 [mph] is very good to see," he said. "Actually, I have not played with Pat before, but hope to see in flesh and bone. It is clear that some aspect is very, very good."
Although White said that Australia will be able to experiment with some combinations, he hopes they can find people who work at an early stage, as they look forward to next year's World Twenty20. "Every game is like gold for us," he said. "There are not many Twenty20 Internationals go into this World Cup, each of these games is of paramount importance to our preparation for the tournament."
Australia, focused on building a stable and XI, to create continuity in the shorter form of the game, South Africa, you can see the perfect opportunity to pounce. It will run its new look outfit, with coach Gary Kirsten, and Hashim Amla as a captain in the absence of AB de Villiers, through injury, to restore national pride by sporting.
White is not too read the claims in South Africa to begin a new era and feels that both teams are equal in a transitional stage. "We know a couple of players missing and have a new coach, we," he said. "In fact, even have a coach, for the moment, we have an interim coach, so we are in a similar position."
When Troy Cooley to remain after Tim Nielsen resigned last month that the coach is not worried about White, who said that it is up to players to do their part. "You can be the best coach in the world, but we played a lot 'of Twenty20 cricket as individuals, so we know how to play the game. There is only so much a coach can make Twenty20 cricket."
