That according to all-rounder Steve Waugh, the batting hero of the decisive fourth Test against the West Indies which earned the Australians the unofficial title of world champions.

"We're here to win and play some good cricket at the same time,'' said Waugh, who scored 200 of his side's mammoth first innings total of 531, including a record fourth wicket partnership of 231 with twin brother Mark who contributed 126.

"We don't know much about the (Bermuda) side, but we'll be looking to play aggressively and put on a good show for the crowd.'' Yesterday saw Waugh and the rest of the Australians enjoying their time away from the spotlight following the gruelling tour of the West Indies.

And it was a well earned break after their snapping of what had been a 15-year unbeaten streak for the Windies and the Caribbean side's first home Test defeat in 22 years.

Asked what he thought of his starring role in the just-completed series, a modest Waugh deferred all accolades to the team.

"I'm pleased with my own performance, but more in that of the team because in the end that's what counts.

"We play as a team, for the team. I'm just glad I could play a role in winning it for us.'' One person not impressed with the Aussie triumph was West Indies skipper Richie Richardson.

Richardson, a target of the critics over his leadership, described the Australian team immediately following the series as "the weakest he had played against''.

And he continued to downplay the visitors' accomplishment, pointing more to what his team had not done, rather than what his opponents had achieved.

"We played badly throughout the series,'' Richardson added. "We never batted for more than a day and we didn't do ourselves justice.'' In response, Waugh indicated the comments to be borne from frustration brought on by past success.

"I really don't think he knew what losing was all about,'' said Waugh. "He's never been on a losing team and doesn't know how to handle it.

"He said things that he probably didn't mean at a time when he was upset. He may realise in time what he said was out of line.'' As for the team's plans while on the Island, Waugh said that many were looking to play a bit of golf and basically unwind before heading back Down Under.
