But that's what we do in this great nation of ours, we are there to give each other a hand. That's what makes Aussies different to everywhere else in the world.
It's a fun day, a day which kicks off the start of our tour, it's got great tradition - Australian cricketers just love tradition - and it's been a really pleasant day.
In Australia, we've always been a country that runs the ball right up the middle on the fifth tackle. We've never seen a challenge we didn't like, and we've certainly never run from one.
I've been to Australia several times, and I just like the earthiness; it's part of the culture. That's a really good vibe to be around.
Australians have more fun. They just do. I guess I should not be surprised by this fact given that this is the place that birthed both Hugh Jackman and Kylie Minogue.
Australia has always encouraged the little bloke to have a go, the Aussie battler to get up.
The Australians are a weird bunch - until the cricket starts they're really friendly, saying 'good luck' all the time, but the moment the cricket begins they have a real go at you.
I'm a proud Australian, a very, very proud Australian.
Australian people are dope. They're so fun. They want to just have a good time, and they have a great sense of humour.
