I have asked a couple of people about why I was not being played, and I get the sense that they were worried about my fitness. I feel fitter than I did last year, but I guess I will not get a chance to prove that now, says Glenn McGrath.

Winning is a rare habit, and once you lose it, it can be hard to get the habit back when you need it. By the time you read this, we would have played against Rajasthan and hopefully, we would have rediscovered our winning ways, says the Australian pacer.

This is a potentially dangerous phase for us, as we prepare for the semi-finals. We will be coming up against teams who desperately need to win to keep their semi-final hopes alive, says the former Australian seamer.

Viru's return might mean that David Warner, who has been really superb, will have to make way for Daniel Vettori. However, a final call will be made only tomorrow, says the legandary Australian bowler.

Kolkata are a side you would not like to take lightly, and now that their pride is seriously hurt and since they have nothing more to lose they could be the side to be wary of in the tournament, feels the legendary Australian bowler.

We have not played to potential, but we have still managed five wins in seven games. The momentum is with us, and we seem to be doing just enough to get across the line, says the former Australian Fast bowler.

We are not complacent or taking anything for granted, but there is a quiet confidence in the camp as we enter the second half our league games, says the former Australian pacer.

The story of the tournament for me would have to be the way the spinners have fared in the tournament. Daniel Vettori has been exceptional, as has Shane Warne, Harbhajan Singh and Muthiah Muralitharan, says the Australian pacer Glenn McGrath.

The shift to South Africa is good for the pace bowlers because the conditions here suit us, and it's good for the Australians because the pace and bounce in the wickets is similar to what we are used to, feels the former Australian pacer.
