Zimbabwe captain Alistair Campbell on chasing the target:

``A good launching pad then we lost three or four wickets at crucial stages that put us behind the blackboard a bit, obviously it's never easy chasing three hundred, but it looked like we could get quite close at one stage''

Campbell on the toss:

``I thought there would be a bit of early moisture. We would have been unhappy chasing 240-250, there was some movement there if you put the ball in the right area.''

Campbell on South Africa v Australia:

``I think the South Africans are a better one day side, they have better all-rounders. The balance is slightly in favour of the South Africans''

Australian captain Steve Waugh on Australia's performance:

``The batting was great, three hundred was an excellent score and we continued on from where we left off in the last game. Bowling wise the first ten overs were pretty good, the next 15 were ordinary, and then we came back pretty strongly. After that our bowling wasn't quite good enough today.''
