"It's not something we envisioned. We just spoke about having to play 12 games and having to be as good as we can be for 12 games. All credit to the support staff. The guys, everyone who game out, deserves it. First job is to qualify and now it's just to come out and take it as we've taken it over the last few games," Kieron Pollard says. "In hindsight, I should have, but sometimes in the heat of battle, you are not thinking about self preservation. If I wanted that, I would have sat out [when asked about putting himself at short leg] This is what I do for my team. Thankfully I didn't get injured. Great headache to have. Each and every person has come into the campaign and gave us something. We have a pretty good idea of what our combination is. It's just about guys coming out and executing to the best of their ability"
"Getting our entire team in," Rayad Emrit says when asked if there was on thing he could have changed. "It's something we have to learn. It's good to have taken 11 wickets, I work hard for that, but it's difficult to digest the way we have ended up in the tournament, finishing last. I'm not going to hear the end of it. I guess I have to go back and try to learn. There's a lot I have to learn as a leader. There's a lot of good youngsters in the team. Da Silva, Archibald, Alzarri. So there's a lot of positives still. Hopefully these guys are around for a lot longer"
Fawad Ahmed is Man of the Match for his four-wicket haul: Mixed form for me - but in this game, I've come well and it's a really good sign for me. Taking wickets gives you a lot of confidence, especially going into the semi-finals. To win 10 out of 10, it's an amazing team performance. You can tell we have a lot of different match winners in the team. That's the secret to our performance, a lot of players are performing well, three-four bowlers, four-five batsmen.We are missing two of our players - Munro and Sunil, hopefully Sunil will be fit for the semi-final.
