"Our players are very good at it. As New Zealand has a
smaller reservoir than the major nations of India, Australia or Pakistan , our
key word is work, work and even work . We are needy. So far, the national team
has often been placed but never won [a title in the Champions Trophy, a
competition that brought together the eight best nations in the world every two
years, now every four years].
This team changes a lot of things. The
excitement is immense in the country because it is the first time that one has
chances to win . In the group stage win against Australia, the atmosphere at
Eden Park was worthy of an All Blacks game. In addition, the team shows great
fair play: in the manner of greeting the opponent's bench or in respect of
arbitration decisions. Conversely, for example, Australians are joking here,
saying that they are warm in defeat but unbearable in victory.
