Captain says:
Afridi:
"First I would like to congratulate Australia. Honestly speaking, we are not good enough. Bowlers gave too many runs in last 4-5 overs. I'll go back home and then make a decision about retirement. I'll do what's best for the country. I will announce this in my country. It's not easy to handle pressure as Pakistan captain. I want to thank the management, the players, the selection committee and the chairman who have supported me. I want to thank the people of Kolkata who gave us a lot of support. Also want to thank the people of Kashmir who came down for supporting us [huge roar from the crowd]. And thank you to the BCCI for their hospitality as well."

Smith:
"We haven't quite played to our potential yet in the first two games. You want to play your best cricket in the back end of the tournament. Today was a clinical performance and I'm proud of the boys. Davey [Warner] has hit the ball well and he needed to bat higher up. Usman has been batting beautifully and Finch came in and looked good as well. We need to win the remaining three games if we want to win the World Cup. India are a world class team especially in these conditions. Zampa is a very smart bowler, reads the batsman well, and all his skills are coming together. The game against India is in two days time. Probably, we'll see some footage and stuff. But tomorrow, we'll just rest. T20 cricket takes a lot out of you and then be ready to go in 2 days time."
"I got lucky in the end. More importantly, we won and got back on track. I'm just happy we won again and played some decent cricket as a group as we have done back home. We didn't start well, but there's lot of strength and depth in the squad and there was no reason we couldn't bounce back. India are a strong team in these conditions, and we'll start afresh in a couple of days time," says Man of the Match, James Faulkner.
