1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: This is gem Nation with Jones.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 2: We can't mention our next guest name without talking about cricket.

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 2: Mark Taylor a former Australian captain, opening batsman, all round,

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 2: a slip fielder, just an extraordinary cricketer and when it's

5
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 2: not on our telly spooking air conditioners, he does a

6
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 2: very good job. He's spending time in the commentary box.

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 2: He's joining us now to talk about the T twenty

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 2: Australia takes on New Zealand in the World Cup and

9
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 2: the Men's World Cup tomorrow night Mark Taylor, Hello.

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 3: Good morning Mana and good morning James.

11
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 4: How are you mate? No one acts better when it

12
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 4: comes to being cold or hot than you, Like, I

13
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 4: really believe it.

14
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: When you're sitting there freezing, like I look at Tubby's

15
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: really cold, and then when you're really hard, I got

16
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 1: look at Tubby's really hot.

17
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 3: Jamesy, do you think I'd get an oscar for that

18
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 3: or what.

19
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 4: I think you should think? I think there should be

20
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,959
Speaker 4: some sort of category for that. At the lake he's

21
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 4: at the very least.

22
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you think you are being ripped off?

23
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: Well?

24
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 3: I agree, I agree.

25
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about the World Cup. So we are

26
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: the Australia twenty team. The men's beat New Zealand in

27
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 2: the final last time. This time it's the first match

28
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 2: to kick it all.

29
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 3: Off absolutely and starts tomorrow night at six o'clock Sydney time.

30
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 3: That is yeah, and it's a big game obviously for

31
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 3: both sides. It's a very tournament, this one. It starts

32
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 3: and finishes in about three weeks. So every game vitally

33
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 3: important because they've got six teams in two pools or

34
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: six teams at each pool, should I say, and you've

35
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 3: really got to win four of your five games. If

36
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 3: you lose I think two games or a chance of

37
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 3: missing the semis. So this first game Australia in New

38
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 3: Zealand always a great competitive match when we take on

39
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 3: our friends across the ditch. But tomorrow vitally important to

40
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 3: see where both sides are at.

41
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 2: So big names playing. We've got Pat Cummins, Dave Warner,

42
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: Steve Smith, Mitchell Stark, Josh Hazelwood.

43
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 4: You know, a big lineup.

44
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Aaron Fincher's at the top of the order back

45
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: in the bit of form Steve Smith. The beat news

46
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 3: is may not play what I'm hearing m David young

47
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 3: guy who's made his way into T twenty cricket, looks

48
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 3: like he's going to bat at six or seven. And

49
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 3: Steve Smith might be carrying the drinks, which is probably

50
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: a real shock when you've got well, potentially the world's

51
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 3: best Test batsman maybe not playing for Australia in a

52
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 3: T twenty match. So that's a bit of news coming

53
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 3: into tomorrow and night's game.

54
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: I know you retired before T twenty started, but it

55
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: was probably three years after you retired. But do you think, oh, man,

56
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: if only they come on a bit sooner, I could

57
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: be still out there.

58
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely not. I don't think T twenty cricket and me

59
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 3: would have seen eye to lie. I love the Test cricket.

60
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 3: I didn't mind One day cricket, but that was certainly

61
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 3: not I wasn't great at that either, so I think

62
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 3: T twenty might have been a bridge too far from me.

63
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 3: But I certainly enjoy watching it and look forward to well,

64
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 3: not so much calling it, but hastening it tomorrow and

65
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: night And so.

66
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: Is this a completely different skill set If you can

67
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 2: be a good cricketer but not necessarily be good at T.

68
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: Twenty, absolutely man, it's a real SoundBite of the game

69
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,839
Speaker 3: this two twenty cricket, and as I said a moment ago,

70
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 3: it's why someone like Steve Smith may not play for Australia.

71
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 3: A lot of these young players now are coming up

72
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 3: just learning to hit the ball hard. Where thirty years

73
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 3: ago when I came up through the ranks, it was

74
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 3: about staying in batting long periods of time to make runs.

75
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 3: Now it's going out there and potentially hitting the first

76
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: or second before your face for four or six. So

77
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,679
Speaker 3: it's a very different skill. You can become a hero

78
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 3: by making twenty, whereas used to get chestised for making

79
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 3: twenty as a matterment in my time. So the games

80
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 3: are very very different.

81
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 4: And you've got to go out there and do stuff

82
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 4: like do the worm or the robot or something out

83
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 4: on the field. Do you where that's about bringing the bazaars?

84
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 3: Yeah? Do you think God look good doing the work

85
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 3: if you work on those acting skills again.

86
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: I think if you can act so convincingly as Mark

87
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: Taylor hot and Mark Taylor Cole, I don't think there's

88
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: a problem with.

89
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 4: You doing the work. Kay Perry wrote that sign to

90
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 4: walk in the park.

91
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: That's all great to talk to you the twenty twenty

92
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: two ICC Men's T twenty World Cup fourteen matches including

Speaker 1: every Australia game and finals live and free on the
