Sri vs West Indies:
Great game of cricket from both sides but at the end West Indies won by 7 wickets. What a batting from Andre Ftetcher the West Indies opener.He made heighest score in T20 in his record.The match detail are shown :
Mathews:
"I thought we were 20-30 runs short and were horrible in the field. If we had taken our chances, it would have been a close game. Unfortunately, we did not. In the middle order, we kept losing wicket after wicket. It was really difficult and we started to reassess the wicket. We wanted to get 150, but we fell short. Winning an ICC tournament is always special. We have quite an inexperienced team compared to 2014, the seniors are doing their job by teaching the youngsters."
Sammy: "We always had some close battles with Sri Lanka. The record in World Cups is not good for us, but it was good to see the way we came out and bowled, restricted them to a total that almost became competitive. Fletcher coming in for his first game was just brilliant, I am happy with the way he batted. He was picked in the original squad, but was left out because of Charles's form, but today he came good. I am really happy for him. Look at the games played at Nagpur and here today, the spinners seem to be the only ones getting the wickets. My spinners, Badree and Benn bowled in the powerplay and came back and continued to take wickets, especially Badree who came back to pick three wickets. This World Cup is very special. We had a few difficulties before the tournament, but we are here to win it.
