Clarke - "Obviously a great start to the series. WI showed a lot of fight today but credit to our bowlers for sticking in on this slow pitch. In the first innings we did really well with the ball which I thought was vital. Voges is a class act and has got his opportunity after some great performances in domestic circuit in Australia. It was nice to see him get going the way he did."

Ramdin - "We showed a lot of character through that partnership between Shane and Marlon but lost too many wickets in a heap. The first innings failure probably cost us the game. Bishoo's spell was a positive for us as he created opportunities for us. Our bowling is a positive we can take from this game but need to pull up our socks in batting."


Voges (Man of the Match) - "It's been a long time coming. To get a chance and to then make a hundred is special. We did a great job with the ball in the first innings which set it up for us. West Indies did fight in the 2nd innings but we stuck at it to get the job done."
