“I think if we want to be challenged, it’s you [have] “We have to try to find a way in all conditions, and that is for the bowlers trying to take wickets and for the batsmen trying to score runs,” Cummins told the host broadcaster after the match.
“Maybe there’s not much to say [to my team-mates] Tonight. I think everyone is hurting. We have a few days and the next match is here as well. So we will come together and regroup… everyone is hurting. So we are trying to compensate.”
Against South Africa, their bowling and fielding – where they dropped six overs – were not up to the mark either.
“I wouldn’t say it’s one thing [where Australia went wrong]”Maybe they are,” he said [South Africa] Got a few more than we would have liked. 177 is clearly not the case. So, yeah, there are some things we need to sort out.”
Bavuma described the Australia match as “close to perfect” for his team.
“I think I would be really greedy if I said there would be areas we could improve,” he said. “I think there was a near-perfect match for us. Maybe it was the goal with the bat, and we could have finished a little stronger, but I think they bowled well throughout the entire innings.”
“At no point did the run rate get out of control for them… I think given all the different phases, the power play in the middle, and also the death overs – it wasn’t really a death overs – but I think ‘the guys really controlled that.’ I don’t want to be too greedy. There’s not much I can see.
“I think you can look at the good work we’ve done and achieved. So, I’ll gain confidence, take the lessons and experience… celebrate our individual performance, and then we’ll come back.” Tomorrow we will find ways to improve as a team.”
“I think 311 was probably above average. I think 290-300 was the equivalent score,” Bavuma said. “I think I’m glad we lost the toss because we also had a lot to chase. I think things went our way. I found it very difficult with the bat. I was scrappy throughout my innings. I think Quinton got out and it ended up with a score like that, I think he needs a lot of credit.” “
