'Australia were exceptional' - Clarke

  • Intro:

    Reaction after Michael Clarke's Australia seal a 2-0 series win over Denesh Ramdin's West Indies with a crushing 277-run victory in the second Test in Jamaica.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Michael Clarke, Australia captain:

    "Oh, I think we played some really good cricket throughout this series in both Test matches. Nice to see the batters make the runs and the bowlers bowl as well as they have. I think the bowlers were exceptional throughout this series on wickets which were quite slow, there wasn't much pace and bounce there, especially for the fast bowlers, but I thought they worked really hard."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Michael Clarke, Australia captain:

    "Obviously, winning the first one (Test) in three days and the second one in four days, I think it's a fantastic achievement."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Denesh Ramdin, West Indies captain:

    "Everyone is disappointed. I believe we didn't bat as well as we wanted to. Losing early wickets this morning, we had our plans and we tried to bat the first hour and take it deep into that afternoon session and bat out the day and then come tomorrow and see how many runs are needed, but I think the Australians, they keep coming at us all the time and they didn't give us anything easy. Losing those wickets put us under some pressure."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Denesh Ramdin, West Indies captain:

    "We coped well at times, I wouldn't say it was good throughout, but we can improve as a team, so hopefully we will learn from this experience and we go from strength to strength. It was one of the best all-round teams in the world and, you know, we didn't do as consistently as we wanted to, but we would like to take this moving forward to the next series."
