Today he showed what he is capable of. He provided the late assault that was very important. We wanted a score around 160 and the extra 40 odd runs came in very handy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, captain Darren Sammy on his team playing flawless cricket said, \u201cWe knew that we had to play our A game if we want to beat a team like Australia, we played a perfect match and executed our plans brilliantly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the big finals against Sri Lanka he said, \u201cThey are a very strong team especially in these conditions.
