Virat Kohli:
A top, top win for us after losing that series in India. We came in with intent right from ball one. The opening p'ship was outstanding. It was an outstanding with the ball on a good batting track. You have to bowl well. You can't take things for granted. That 30 runs gives you the luxury. One of the top three getting hundred. We decided to send Hardik to cash in. For us if Shami has to play, it has to be overcast and proper bowling conditions. Very professional again. You hardly need to say anything to them.
Aaron Finch:
They got 120 (sic) off the last 10 overs and that's a lot. There wasn't huge amount on offer. We could have dried up more. They bat very deep, you want to go for wickets. Just that type of a game, they outplayed us. You look at everything. You look for different combinations depending on the situation. We're starting to pick up the tempo; that's one mode of dismissal. They bowled well to him. He's a great bowler and he'll bounce back.
Shikhar Dhawan, Man of the Match:
We are happy with the result as it was a great team effort. It's a great sign for our team and I'm happy with this man of the match award. Very happy with the performance overall. We are a great fielding side, we took great catches. We have a good bowling side, great spinners as well. We work really hard in the nets, our process is very strong that's why the results are going our way. We ticked all the boxes today. We knew they are a great side and the match will go down to the wire. We need to continue ticking the boxes in upcoming matches. The fans are having a great time and they'll be happy with this win.
