Quotes
Ravi Rampaul
West Indies bowling coach
“It was definitely a very good batting performance by the Indian team in their home conditions on a batting-friendly pitch. However, our bowlers weren’t consistent enough on a surface that suited batting, and our execution wasn’t up to the required standard.”

“Chasing down more than 400 runs in 43 overs is obviously not acceptable from our perspective, but it’s important to rebuild confidence and move forward.”
