Shai Hope (Player of the Match & West Indies Capain): "Really happy to play the way I did today and more importantly win the game for the country. You always have a lot more time than you think in ODI cricket, and that stuck with me, and I always backed myself and our team to win from any position.
He was amazing, and he is always amazing, we are starting the series on a high and we hope we can win the next one too. The openers played very well, we have to improve in certain areas, we had a few mishaps in the field and we will put in work for that but great to start off with a win.
It was nice to see them take responsibility, both are quality players and it's great to see them getting the runs and we want to keep this consistent."

Jos Buttler (England Captain): "Yeah, I think fantastic game of cricket. I think a lot of credit goes to Shai Hope. They left a lot to do and they they played really well at the back end there to chase those runs down.
Yeah, I thought it was a fantastic batting effort. I love the intent the guys came out with at the top. They really set the tone for us. They managed to peg us back a little bit. We found the wicket a bit tricky in the middle phase. I thought they bowled well and slowed it up a bit, but I thought it was a fantastic effort to get to that score and it needed a special innings to chase it down.

Yeah, of course. You always want to play well and it's been a little while now since I've played my best, so I need to just keep working hard and trust it'll come back.
Brilliant game of cricket, credit to Shai Hope and Shepherd, it was fantastic hitting and we’ll learn a lot from that. We did some things well, lot to take out of it, we’re looking forward to the next."
