Congrats on the winning start Windies! Good to see the bowlers turn up today along with Hettie's innings. Have to step it up against stronger opposition
Shimron Hetmyer | Player of the Match -
Honestly, I'd say catch to be fair (on if he liked his batting or catching). I'm doing some work on my fielding and I haven't got an opportunity to take a catch, happy to be contributing that way. It's up there (if this was his best ever catch). Everything happens for a reason, I'm not complaining. When I got here, I just focussed on my batting and the game, wanted to give the bowlers a good score / or chase it down. It's fun (to bat at 3), it's something I was used to doing previously, but in T20s, finishing is also a skill, I'm doing this. Batting at 3, the ball comes a bit faster when compared to 5 or 6, it's just about getting into a good position. I thought he'll get this award, excited and proud of him (on Romario Shephard). It's not always you get a 5-wicket haul. I think we've the potential to go as far as the finals, it's all about executing our plans.
Shai Hope | West Indies captain:
īģŋYeah, you just hit the nail on the head there. There's no margin for error in these tournaments. It's not like a bilateral series where you've got another game to get back into the series if you come up on the losing end, but a good start is all we're after. (on their score) We felt we probably could have gone a little bit more, especially here in Eden Gardens. It's a chasing ground. I think the first score was 190 or something. So it was a bit challenging to start. It was just good to see the guys came back in the middle overs and showed what the power that we possess. And again with the ball, just putting it hard this time around and getting it right.
