00:00 It's a massive occasion as we know, but I think we just went into our shells just a
00:04 little bit.
00:05 And to go from 155 for two, if it was, to 190 odd all out is just not on.
00:15 Yeah, credit to India, I thought they bowled really well, but I just thought our performance
00:20 was just a little bit timid.
00:22 It didn't seem like an ICC event tonight, let's be brutally honest.
00:27 It seemed like a bilateral series, it seemed like a BCCI event.
00:31 I didn't hear Dil Dil Pakistan coming through the microphones too often tonight.
00:36 So yes, that does play a role, but I'm not going to use that as an excuse because for
00:40 us it was about living the moment, it was about the next ball, and it was about how
00:46 we were going to combat the Indian players tonight.
