| 0:00.0 | It's a point of cricket. |
| 0:01.0 | Oh, how do you do it? |
| 0:02.0 | Great cricket is a present. |
| 0:03.0 | We're going to look at the perils of sweeping. Where's the good cricket team? The grey trick is there's real brats. If you're going to do it, do it to England. He's out now. He's got 40. Who's a fucking in my lap? If you're an Australian, has anything been more satisfying than this 4-1 series win win after all the chat, all the confidence, |
| 0:22.2 | all the saving the game telling us everyone will remember how we play, taking credit for how |
| 0:26.7 | other teams played, fastest cartel combined 11s, coming here to dominate. Worst team in 15 years. |
| 0:32.6 | Not going to have beers with you, best team in 15 years. Flying here and booing the best player |

| 1:23.9 | Well said. Beautiful. |
| 1:25.6 | It's Friday night. Friday night, baby. |
| 1:27.4 | It's time to release a show. |
| 1:29.0 | He goes, bringing back to the grade level, like cricket is a game of shit talk. |
| 1:33.9 | Okay? |
| 1:34.8 | That's part of its charm. |
| 1:36.7 | It's not just about the game. |
