GC: Yes and no. It had more to do with what was going on in Australian cricket at that time. World Series cricket had just come in. The whole programme had changed. One day cricket had become a very big part of the programme and we in Australia had two touring teams instead of one. We played six Test matches in the summer as opposed to our opponents playing three each, weekend games... The programme was really quite difficult for the Australian team. At the same time, the Melbourne Cricket Ground pitch was not upto standard and we played most of our cricket there. It was the frustration at all things that were wrong with our programme that negatively impacted the players. I had been fighting for a number of seasons to try and get the administrators to understand what they were doing to us. It was very hard on the Australian players, particularly the key players, who were playing all of the matches - the Tests and One Dayers. As captain, I was very frustrated at that stage. I was tired, mentally and physically. I was frustrated with our players that day and in a couple of games leading up to that match. We also had one more Test match to play that summer - that was against India and the series was still very much alive at that point. All of that impacted on us the Australian team and me as Australian captain. The decision I made really had more to do with all of that than with winning or not losing a cricket match. I wasn't fit mentally at that stage to be captain of the Australian team. That decision shouldn't have been taken. I would like to think under normal conditions that decision would not have been taken. It was really my way of showing what I thought of the whole thing, I was frustrated and angry with the way things were going. Whilst it was within the laws of the game it was certainly outside the spirit of the game and it was a decision, probably the only decision, that I would not like to take again. It was certainly the wrong decision to make.
