"We need to give bowlers a few more runs," says MS Dhoni. "We haven't scored consistently over 300. On this wicket we should have scored 450 or above. The batsmen who got starts didn't make it matter. In the second innings, it was like a landslide we couldn't stop. We have everything to play for in Nagpur. Everybody needs to pull up their socks. Of course the better team won. They bowled in the right areas they fielded well .... They played well but we need to retaliate"
"Everyone performed," says Alastair Cook. "To keep India to 300 on that wicket was a great effort. Credit to all the hard work we have out in. It was a tough morning session yesterday. Credit to the way Sehwag and Gambhir played. We knew we needed to strike early, that's what Graeme Swann did. Nice to contribute to the team success. To score runs out here you need to bat for a long period. I needed some luck. We have to recover well, this win has taken a lot out of us. A big thank you to the Barmy Army, it means a lot for us. This is a long way from home, we need all the support. We will try to win the series in Nagpur, we can't be complacent"
