Who said what at the Cricket World Cup on Thursday, the first day of the 2023 tournament:
"It's a little bit unbelievable. It was great to have a great day out."
-- New Zealand's Rachin Ravindra who was named man of the match in the nine-wicket win over England after his century and 273-run partnership with Devon Conway who also hit a century.
"Batting-wise, we just couldn't get that significant partnership like they did that would have allowed us to really set the game up. We also didn't bowl as well as we can do, which does happen when you're below where you want to be with the bat. When the conditions change as well, it all just adds up to making that gulf enormous."
-- England's Joe Root who top scored for his team with 77 talking to the BBC.
"We're super proud of Rachin, batting at three for the first time in an ODI, and he played beautifully."
-- New Zealand captain Tom Latham.
"It's not just Ben who is able to score runs in our team. We've got brilliant players right throughout the squad. So, we had a lot of starts. I thought we were just a bit off in our execution."
-- England skipper Jos Buttler on the absence of Ben Stokes through injury.
"I think there's a bit of a mystique. The Indian public loves cricket. They don't get to see the likes of Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammed Rizwan, Fakhar Zaman, Shadab Khan, they don't get to see them often."
-- Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur on the atmosphere around his team on their first visit to India in seven years.
