00:00 Ben, congratulations on the win. Great start to the tournament for you guys.
00:04 Yeah, fantastic start. Probably the best situation we could have had.
00:08 A few lads got in and we bowled pretty well, so very happy.
00:12 Farhan and Luke set you guys up really nicely with the ball. A word on them?
00:16 They've been bowling really well. They've been bowling really well during practice,
00:23 during the practice games, and I thought getting them on early was a perfect opportunity
00:27 for us to take as many wickets as we did.
00:29 Yeah, ending the game with 25 overs to spare must be really satisfying.
00:33 Absolutely. Sort of a tricky number, tricky chase in terms of whether you want to finish it early
00:40 or you want to take it deep. I think we've done probably the perfect job.
00:46 Did you guys decide prior to the toss, did you have many conversations around
00:53 whether you're going to bat first or field first if you won the toss?
00:57 No, we sort of just looked at the wicket. It was obviously a new pitch,
01:02 there was quite a lot of live grass on it. We thought bowling, get a bit out of it early.
01:07 Held a bit actually as well, so yeah, we're pretty happy with the decision.
01:11 Congratulations on your own innings, 88 of 68 balls, 12 fours and three sixes.
01:17 Some really entertaining shots as well. How did you go about constructing your innings?
01:22 I sort of started quickly in games gone by and I thought I'd take a bit more time
01:28 to get myself in and get my eye in. I thought it probably paid off today
01:31 and I was really happy with my range at the end.
01:34 Tuesday against South Africa is going to be a big one. How do you guys go about that?
01:39 I think we just, game by game, we'll play the best we can every game
01:45 and if we're at our best we'll win.
01:49 Thank you very much for your time.
01:52 And done!
