		Somewhere amongst Simon Katich's pads and boxes there's a long poem that the top NSW bat and vice-captain wrote on the 2001 Ashes Tour of England.
		I caught up with Simon Katich over summer, when he was in between cricketing duties for NSW and the Prime Minister's XI.
		Katich finished the poem on the fifth day and then, after Australia won the test, Ricky Ponting invited him to read the rest of the poem before they sang the victory song, "Beneath the Southern Cross".

	Katich fire fuelled by team's lost chance - Cricket - Sport - theage.com.au
		SIMON Katich has simmered down but still believes the leg-before decision that prompted him to unleash a stream of invective at the England crowd, costing him more than $6000, might also have cost Australia the chance to build a match-winning lead in the fourth Test.
		Katich, a generally placid 29-year-old with a tidy technique and calm outlook, spoke of his burning ambition to win a match for Australia off his own bat and of a suppressed part of his personality that comes from his father's hot-tempered Croatian heritage, and only occasionally reveals itself.
		Katich admitted that before this year, his game had been affected by the cruel cuts of selectors — last year he was axed for Andrew Symonds and later Darren Lehmann and in 2001 was nudged out of the Oval Test after making his debut at Headingley.

	thewest.com.au : Katich on standby for struggling Clarke (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Axed opener Simon Katich is on standby for Sunday's knockout clash with India in the Champions Trophy as Australia sweats on the fitness of Michael Clarke, who has tonsillitis.
		But the NSW captain Katich could force his way back into the side if a pale-looking Clarke fails to convince national selector David Boon he is fit to play in Sunday's must-win clash expected to be played in heatwave conditions.
		Katich is Australia's leading scorer in 2006 with 783 at 39.15 in 22 matches, but his ability to score quickly was questioned in last month's tri-series in Malaysia.

	Sporting Life - Ashes 2001
		The diminutive left-hander scored over a thousand runs in his first season in England with Durham, and is viewed as the main contender to Justin Langer for the number three slot this summer.
		Katich's main attributes are a flawless technique and an exquisite sense of timing.
		But Katich served the selectors with a reminder of his talents with an extraordinary haul of 1282 runs in the Australian first-class season to follow his exploits for Durham.

	Katich stakes one-day claim - Cricket - www.theage.com.au
		Stand-in batsman Simon Katich, with the help of a record partnership from his clean-hitting colleagues down the order, earlier saved the world champions from severe embarrassment against the West Indies, who remain winless in the series.
		Katich's cool-headed performance yesterday has made it extremely difficult for the national selectors to exclude him from Australia's one-day team for its next match in Perth.
		Katich went to the crease with Australia in trouble at 4-38, its top order levelled for the second time in a week by a resurgent attack led by left-armer Pedro Collins.

	Katich a man for all seasons \| England \| International Cricket \| Cricket \| Sport \| Telegraph
		If Simon Katich was English, he would be of little use to the England and Wales Cricket Board in their spin-laden promise to develop three superstars who will be recognised by 10 per cent of the population by 2009.
		And that is something Katich, whose name has Croatian origins, has been doing a lot more of lately, in a belated response to cricket's vicissitudes, which have never been especially kind to him, always testing his Catholic faith to the full.
		Katich was devastated but managed to keep his counsel, and returned for the final Test in Colombo before playing in all four Tests last October in India, including his 99 in the decisive Nagpur Test.

	Katich opens up - Cricket - Sport - theage.com.au
		SIMON Katich has conceded that the return of Adam Gilchrist and the strong push from rookie left-hander Phil Jaques has placed him under immense pressure to maintain his position atop Australia's one-day order.
		Katich, who has performed steadily in limited-overs competition throughout the summer, said his lack of big scores had proven frustrating and left him potentially vulnerable.
		Katich enjoyed a strong run of form throughout the one-day component of the Super Series and the early matches in the Chappell-Hadlee series.

		SYDNEY—Australia dropped struggling batsman Simon Katich and gave all-rounder Andrew Symonds a chance to revive his Test career as selectors named a 12-man squad for the second Test against the West Indies.
		“Simon’s form has not been what he expects of himself and we felt it was time to give someone else an opportunity,” chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns said Thursday.
		It is the third time Katich has been axed during his 23-Test career but Hohns said he could still force his way back if he scored enough runs in domestic cricket.

		The reverse swing specialist struck with his second ball when Katich, on 45, guided a wide delivery to Andrew Strauss at backward point where the fielder was one of two men positioned for such a stroke.
		Katich, dropped on nought, was 20 not out and Gilchrist yet to face after Michael Clarke was lbw to Harmison off the last ball of Friday's play.

	Katich sharpens his blade after Jaques attacks - Cricket - Sport - smh.com.au
		SIMON Katich will live to fight another day after his determined half- century in Adelaide.
		Katich demonstrated on Australia Day in Adelaide that he could be the foil while Gilchrist blazed at the other end, a prospect that appeals to the selectors and Ricky Ponting, who maintains Australia's World Cup opening combination is already in action.
		Katich still hopes to provide a slow-bowling option, too, perhaps to enhance his World Cup claims in the Caribbean, although his left-arm wrist spin has had little exposure of late.

	ICC Champions Trophy 2006 - Simon Mathew Katich 's Profile
		For Simon Katich 2005-06 was the most difficult season of his career.
		Despite being the pyjama side's third-highest run-scorer in Australia last summer, Katich also knows the top of the limited-overs order, a vacancy he has filled since being touted as a World Cup opener in 2004-05, will not be a safe seat.
		Unable to free himself of a virus that overcame him in the wake of that illness, he was forced to sit out much of the 1999-2000 domestic summer, but after a stellar 2000-01 - 1282 first-class runs and a century against every state - he was picked for the 2001 Ashes tour.

		The left-handed Katich, on his second tour with the senior team, got the nod ahead of his state teammate Justin Langer, who lost his test place at the start of the series.
		Katich, who will turn 26 at the end of the Headingley test, started the tour with an impressive 168 off just 167 deliveries in his first outing against MCC at Arundel before the first test at Edgbaston.
		It is a test of character," Katich said reflecting on the illness which saw him out of action for three months after his first tour with Australia to Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in 1999.

	Detailed individual player profile of SM Katich of Australia
		Katich is a quiet accumulator, whose virtue is patience rather than assertion, but he is a dangerous player in English conditions because of his extensive experience in county cricket.
		Left-handed Simon Katich is a key Australian batsman because he's a no-frills get-the-job-done type of player who bats at a different pace to the more dynamic guys.
		Katich will often have 40 on the board and you'll wonder how he made his runs because he doesn't play the amazing cover drives or big pull shots.
