Ireland’s Innings:
Indian Innings:
It wasn”t a big target and India achieved it without much fuss. They didn’t hunt it down in any real hurry, just made sure they did the job without getting into any trouble. Another fine innings from Rohit. Hang on for the post-match quotes from the captains.
Porterfield “The wicket did a bit early on. They bowled well early on and we nicked a couple but we batted better later on. We fought really well. Losing Nial and Johnston wasn’t easy but we are not going to make any complaints.”
Dhoni The bowlers did well with the new ball; that is the positive thing we would take through the next game. We thought Zaheer just needed one more game to get into the groove and that’s what has happened.” On his bat no 3: It just depends. We were trying out a few things. It feels good to be in Super 8. Now on there won’t be any easy games.
Man of the Match – Zaheer Khan “Good that I got a few wickets. This is my favorite wicket here. Bowling at the death is my strength. I can get a few yorkers in. Looking forward to Super 8. We are working well as a bowling unit. We have lots of bowling options. So far I haven’t bowled my quota of four overs which is great.”
