New Delhi: West Indies skipper Shai Hope lauded his side complete performance in their 30-run win against England in the T20 World Cup.

Player of the match Sherfane Rutherford (76 not out), Roston Chase (34 and 2/29) and Gudakesh Motie (3/32) starred in West Indies’ win in a crucial Group C match.

“I’m just happy that the guys got off the line. We’ve been playing some good cricket patches. Nice to see we’ve got more of a complete game today. Two games up, which is where we want to be in the table,” Hope said at the post-match presentation.

Chase received particular praise from Hope for his all-round ability and pointed out hw he can be a floater in the batting line-up.

“He’s a versatile player. With the bat, he can come in and stabilise the innings, and then with the ball, he can come and give you some crucial overs in the middle,” Hope said.

“It’s great to see him there come in and get some crucial wickets there for us, put the England batters under pressure, and that’s exactly what we required today to get ourselves over the line.

“Yeah, in this situation there, we wanted him to just stabilize a little bit. We understand we’ve got a lot of power in the inning and our batting,” he added.

“Today was just a slightly different role for him, but it was good to see him come in and stabilize the innings for us. Outstanding. Yeah, for sure. These guys, they’ve been playing really well the last couple of months.

“Rutherford has been exceptional, especially the last few series that he’s played in. Again, it’s good to see one of the batters putting their hands up today and going big for the team.”

Hope also lauded the performance of their spinners and he way their batters handled the threat of England’s Adil Rashid.

“When you get some time off, you’ve got to make sure you’re trying to find your team. improve and elevate the game. He (Gudakesh Motie 3/33) is one of the class bowlers that we’ve had for some time now. He’s just shown his class once again on the world stage,” he said.

“He’s brought something else to his game and it’s benefiting us a lot here in the middle overs. It’s great to see that he’s continuing to progress and continue doing what he’s doing best for us.”
