Chamari Athapaththu (Sri Lanka Women Captain): [on winning a series in WI after 20 years] "Feeling good because after 20 years we won the series against West Indies in their home soil so big achievement for us. I am not happy about my batting unit. We need to score more runs in these conditions. It was a really good batting wicket today. Actually bowlers have done a really good job today.
[on fielding] We've done really good things in fielding. But I feel we haven't been at our best and have struggled in the field sometimes.
[on Vishmi Gunaratne] She's one of our good players in the side. She normally bats as opener but according to our plans she batted at 4 and she executed her plans at the right time.
[on the plans v WI batters] I know the West Indies batters are really good because they have good power hitting batters. Deandra, Henry can hit sixes anytime. We planned few things for them. We need to execute our plans in the next game as well."

Hayley Matthews (West Indies Women Captain): "[on the result] The bowlers did a really good job of keeping them to 208. They were probably in control at one stage of the innings but we did a really good job to put them back. Pretty disappointing to not get the result.
[on losing 17 wickets to spinners in the series] We're going to just have to look at better plans. The pacers are only bowling 5-10 overs each game. It's going to be quite hard for them to take most of the wickets. We definitely gonna have to look at our plans. Look at the ways that we could best counteract it.
[on Glasgow] It's been really good to see. Back-to-back fifties for her. Probably haven't had many people in the team to do that consistently in quite some time. The way she's been able to improve over the last year or so has been really good and she's someone who's certainly been working hard and been hungry for the success that she's had. Good to see her reap the rewards."

Vishmi Gunaratne (Player of the Match): "[on her shoulder] It's fine, thank you.
[on batting at 4] I played as an opener but I got the chance to play at number 4 and I played according to the situation.
[on wickets falling around her] It's just a game that I love. I played according to the situation.
[on the surface] It was good for the batters."
