ICC U19 Men's CWC Scotland and West Indies Captain Quotes
Player of the Match, Shiva Shankar from the West Indies:
"I'm just really happy with my performance today. I think that the wicket had a bit of bounce and the ball was swinging, so I was just happy to get a good start for the team.
“I think that all of the players did really well in the field, with some crucial catches so I am just really happy.
“I think we bowl in partnerships really well, we have a good bunch of guys here, we feed off each other, it was really great.”
On the run out: “It was just one of those days, I’m just lucky enough to get the runout, we practice those things often, so I’m just really happy.”
“Coming from a loss, I think that is a great performance there so it is just about building and continuing and I’m just really happy with the performance today and the win.
Scotland captain Charlie Peet:
“Really disappointing for us, we came to this into this game with high hopes of pulling off an upset and we just really didn't do ourselves any justice with the bat.
“It was maybe a bit of not applying ourselves well enough, we lost wickets in clusters as well, which didn't help but I think overall just quite a few loose shots we have got to value our wicket more than that.
“We pride ourselves on [our bowling innings] at least, I thought the boys did really well in the second half to give it a good go and show some fight.”
On his bowling action: “I actually pretty much taught myself. I used to be a pace bowler a bit like Mitchell Johnson and then I was quite a heavy younger child so I couldn't be bothered running in off the full run-up.
“That’s where the weird action comes from and then I just stuck with it because it works.”
On coming in to replace New Zealand: “It's a great opportunity. We were devastated after the way we played in the qualifiers, we felt we were the best team in that tournament, so to get a second chance to come here is just amazing.”
West Indies stand-in captain Giovonte Depeiza:
“I’m very happy, it was a great all-round performance, we can still improve on the small things going on to the next game, but it was a good job.”
What things to work on: “The extras, I feel there were too many extras, the wickets we lost when a chasing small total I feel we should be without loss to send a message.
“It was a great victory, a low total so the bowlers are going well, it is just batting up top, then we can go well in the next game.”
