Following the
victory, Josh Buttler, the winning captain, said, “To win the T20 World Cup
now, really proud of everyone here. It’s been a fantastic tournament. We went
to Pakistan before coming here, which was a valuable time for the group, he has
fitted in really well.”
“We have got a
few Australians in the coaching staff. Huge swing in the game, fantastic over
Adil. Has been outstanding for us in the last three games, just the guy who
makes things happen. When you hit a length there is some movement. We managed
to get away to a start but it wasn’t easy,” the English skipper said.
Babar Azam,
the losing captain, said, “Congratulations to England, they fought well. We
felt like home here, got great support at every venue. Thanks for your support.
I just told the boys our natural game, but we fell 20 runs short and the boys
fought well with the ball. Our bowling is one of the best attacks in the world.
Unfortunately, Shaheen’s injury put us off, but that’s part of the game.”
