"I think it's a great achievement to play the way we did as beating Australia is always a huge achievement. Our bowlers did well initially in the powerplay overs but they did well to get a decent score. We however knew it was gettable and happy that we did it in the end. Chris has been hitting the ball well and it's not nice to wake up a sleeping lion which is what happened today. Overall, happy with the team's performance." - Darren Sammy
