Australian Test captain Michael Clarke has said that their first Test win at Brisbane's Gabba was fantastic because of the aggressive, positive way they played and that they intend to run with that confidence and momentum when the second Test starts in Adelaide on Thursday.

Clarke added that there are few better places to play cricket than Adelaide so everyone should set themselves for a long innings.
