Quotes:
G Bailey - "Well not much about being short of runs. To win any game, you have to do well in two of the three disciplines well which we didn't do today. Lot of our batsmen got starts but could not carry on to make a big score. I thought we got enough though but didn't bowl well enough and the fielding could have been better. The idea to bring Mitch early was to get a few wickets to expose their middle order for the death overs which didn't happen. Hopefully the guys can learn from their mistakes and execute their plans better."
