Brett Lee (Australia Champions Captain): "Yeah, the guys felt it was probably a 160–165 wicket. They ended up about 20 runs short, but full credit to our bowling unit. I thought we started well with the ball, and through that middle period, the spinners did a great job. In particular, Nathan Coulter-Nile bowled a really effective back-of-a-length delivery, and Peter Siddle was absolutely outstanding.
Yeah, exactly — that’s when we tried to apply the pressure. We looked to rotate the bowlers so they didn’t get used to facing one in particular. But full credit to the bowlers — they did a great job. And that chase — wow! I mean, I haven’t seen a chase like that in a long, long time. Chris Lynn was out of the blocks super quick.
Someone had already booked dinner somewhere—but hey, that’s T20 cricket for you. We know how good the West Indies are; they’ve got some brilliant players. It can go either way sometimes, but I’m really pleased with how the guys played tonight.
I’ve been bowling for 40 years now! The pace might not be what it used to be, but the passion and love for the game are still very much there. I’m just enjoying it and having fun."

Chris Gayle (West Indies Champions Captain) : "It was a tough day at the office today. We didn't get the start we wanted with the bat. Chris played really well and took the game away from us. The wicket had low bounce today, but we will not mind it much. We have some crucial upcoming games. It is a bit challenging as well to take part in this league."
Chris Lynn (POTM): "Yeah, we've had a couple of optional sessions, but it's all been good fun. Our first game against England got washed out, so it was great to bounce back with a win in Northampton. Really good to be here.
Yeah, look, I've actually played a couple of seasons here, so I know the surface quite well, which is fortunate. I've also been playing down in Hampshire recently, so it’s nice to get a few out of the middle and help get the boys on a roll.
Yeah, look, they are — and that’s why they’re Australian champions. They’re competitive, even off the field, with some good banter. It’s great being around the boys. We're toward the back end of our careers, but you're always learning. It’s good fun."
