The WI captain also praised Alick Athanaze for his blistering knock of 65 off 45 balls.
"We lost some wickets in the end, so I wanted to be there till the end. He has been in some ripping form, he has the confidence and backing [on Athanaze]. Just went there and expressed himself. Not too much feedback on the reverse sweep, he plays that well and he has our backing. It was about rotating strike, we can however improve on the number of dot balls. I had three games, I feel I've bowled well despite not getting the wickets. But I feel the balls were going in the right areas," he added.
