I have taken that celebration away but the kids near the boundary keep asking me for it. To be able to deliver under pressure against India was pleasing. He is a wonderful player and he has shown that again today. Aiden was brilliant with his changes. Since Rob has come in, he has created a brilliant environment in the team. He pushes hard in the field but also allows us to enjoy our families. The results are there to show on the field.

A bit bleak about Durban, it was disappointing. Great crowd in today and it's nice to put in a performance in front of them. It was on the slower side. But after the rain came in, it quickened up. Sometimes you try too much in T20 cricket, if a match up works you go with him. But, you want to keep him for too long as the batter lines him up. He has been fantastic, super happy for him, he has adopted a bit of leadership role with the batting. Another brilliant knock from him tonight. You gonna pick form players going into the world cup. There might still be a couple of places up for grabs. Every player is working hard and giving his best.

They batted beautifully in the first 5-6 overs and took the game away from us. It was the brand of cricket we were talking about, just go out and express ourselves. It was tough with the wet ball, but we would face similar situations in the future and it's a good learning for us.
