Chris Green (Antigua & Barbuda Falcons Captain): "Oh we learnt that we like winning in the last over. We have been having a lot of fun. Enjoying each other's company has helped us to stay motivated despite the tough start.
Today, we tested our depth. Yeah, look I think he (Fabian Allen) is one of the best finishers in the world. He wants to stand up with bat and ball. He did it last game, he did it today as well.
He (Wanindu Hasaranga) is a world-class player. It was conducive to spin, and we knew he will be tough to get away. Roshon Primus got the two sweeps and it came off."

Andre Fletcher(St Kitts & Nevis Patriots Captain): "It was a difficult wicket to start with. They pegged us back to start with but Louis batted to post a competitive total. Our aim was to control the powerplay which we could not but we came back and fought hard. I am still searching the answers about where we can do better.
Louis is a good cricketer. I told him to be confident and to not take any pressure. Batters will support him and he needs to feel comfortable. He did that, he showed that he can do well.
I must say thank to the crowd for appearing. I feel sorry for disappointing them. We have four games left and we should try doing better."

Imad Wasim(Player of the Match): "These wickets suit me. I've played at crucial numbers. I batted at 8 because of my injury. The wicket was a bit tricky. It was a great toss to win. Louis played unbelievable shots and 153 was a good score.
We tried to take wickets in the middle overs. Our target was to bowl more and more dot balls. Good thing is that we didn't try to overdo anything and that has paid off."
