Rovman Powell (West Indies Captain): "Yeah, definitely. We talked about improving and improving 10-15% every game. We wanted to improve as a team.
When you play at home, the pressure might get you down. We were playing our first game for a while. We were a bit flat in the last game. We started as a 60% and were quite rusty to begin with. We are now moved to 70-80%. From here on, it gets tougher.
That is why Akeal Hosein is the world's number three-ranked bowler. He has done it against full member nations, and we expect him to do well against these newly rising teams. He bowled wicket to wicket and did his job.
We need to play good cricket and continue playing good cricket. Cricket isn't easy in the Caribbean. We have played good cricket for the last 12 months or so. As I said earlier, it gets tougher from here on.
The Guyanese crowd have been superb. They have been backing us for a while. Happy with their involvement. The support has been fantastic."

Brian Masaba (Uganda Captain): "Tough day for us. It shows the difference in the class. We were outplayed in both departments. We must take the lessons from it. In particular as a batting unit, what we can do better.
Just managing to keep them under 200 stood out for me. Death bowling was very impressive. They never got to execute their skills at the death.
Its a huge challenge but we are enjoying. We are tend to get better if we play like quality oppositions.
The fans love this team. We love having them around. They are very passionate bunch. We are very proud of them and enjoy having them aruond."

Akeal Hosein (POTM): "I think I needed this. The ball was coming out of the hand in the nets really well. Even in the series before this tournament, I was bowling well but didn't get the rewards. Trained really hard. I knew my time would come. Just waited for the opportunity.
I think I'll go with the regular finger spinner one, that was my favourite.
When you get success, guys are going to study you and have a plan. You always have to stay a step ahead.
You need to be ready to put in a lot of hard work. For me, it was all about reacting to what the surface offered, just getting those lines and lengths right and planning it out. Even if the ball is going both ways, you cannot do much if you don't plan. So, it is about planning the over well.
I am ready to bowl anywhere the captain wants. When you are in that good form, you just continue and bowl out four overs."
