IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Rohit Sharma after India’s win
I appreciate everyone who came to support us. The crowd has been amazing. Not our home ground but they made it our home ground. Very satisfying win. Right form the beginning our spinners… there is too much expectation but they never disappointed. It helped them and we used that to our advantage. We were very consistent with our bowling. [KL] A very solid mind, never gets overawed with the pressure around him. He finished off the game for us. He picks the right shot to play in the pressure situation which allows the rest of the batters to play freely. For eg, Hardik. The overall batsmanship shown by all the batters was special. [On Chakravarthy] He has something different about him. When you are playing on such a pitch, you want to have something like him. He didn’t start but played later and got wickets. Luckily for us, it came to use. Very grateful for the fans. We really appreciate their support. It may not be seen as useful but when they come out, it makes a difference.

IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner after loss
It has been a good tournament. We had challenges along the way, but we have grown as a group and played some good cricket. We were beaten by a good side who turned up today. Lot of good stuff from our group, guys stepping up at different times and that’s all you can ask as a captain. It was good bowling. We lost a couple of wickets after the powerplay. Credit to the way their spinners bowled, all four of them, world class. We were 25 under but we had a total, we tried to fight and that’s what we did. He keeps doing it doesn’t he. The powerplay was the best time to bat, Rohit and Gill cashed in, Rohit’s innings was outstanding and it put us on the back foot, but we knew the game can change quickly and we kept chipping away at the wickets and stayed in the game. We have seen how he steps up in these major events, he has been oustanding with the ball and even GP.
IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Rachin Ravindra – Player of the Series
Certainly it is bitter-sweet. We played a good game of cricket. Congratulations to India. It is just that we get to play on good wickets but it is also the work I have done years before. Very proud of my past. Very thankful for everyone who has helped me along the way. I always like to bowl. Santner always gives me a bit of banter that I don’t bowl much in the nets. All members of the squad have a part to play, we just go about our business.

IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Rohit Sharma is named the Player of the Match
It is very nice. We played some good cricket though the tournament. To have the result our way is a great feeling. [Aggressive style] Not natural to me, but something I really wanted to do. When you are doing something different, you have to have the backing of the team and management. I spoke to Rahul bhai earlier and now Gauti bhai as well. It is something I really wanted to do. I have played all these years in a different style, and now we are getting the results with this. We have to understand the nature of the surfaces and I was very clear about how I wanted to execute the first five-six overs. I have gotten out as well earlier, but the execution matters. The depth gives me the freedom and it helps. With Jadeja coming at 8, it gives you the confidence to go hard up front. As long as I am clear in my mind, it is great.

IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Varun Chakaravarthy after win
I do have earrings like Shreyas Iyer (on having earrings), I’ll get a new one though. It was a sudden inclusion (on being part of the XI from the league match against New Zealand), I didn’t expect to turn out like this, a dream come true. The spin was less in the first innings and I had to be disciplined, just stick to the basics.
IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Kuldeep Yadav after win
Luckily my batting wasn’t needed. KL and Hardik did brilliantly. I don’t believe in favorites tags but we have been doing brilliantly. This win is dedicated to our fans. It is easy to say that four spinners in the team, but it is very tough to manage four spinners. There was a lot of planning and all credit to Rohit bhai. Big party tonight.

IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Hardik Pandya after India win
Always amazing to win an ICC event. I remember 2017 very closely, couldn’t finish that time. Very pleased to have done it here. KL was calm, he took his chances at the right time. He has immense talent, no one can time it as well as him.
IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: Ravindra Jadeja after India win
That is how it is with me; sometimes a hero, sometimes a zero. The wicket was not easy for a new batter. Hardik and KL were great. Winning the CT is a huge thing. If you don’t win a big tournament after playing so long, it hurts.
IND vs NZ LIVE SCORE: KL Rahul after India win
Not sure I can say this on air but I was s****** myself. As confident as I could be that I could get over the line. Keeping composure is all that matters, happy to have done it this time. I’ve batted in times like this in three out of the five games. Hard to put in words, but the team has pure skill. The way we’ve all had to play cricket growing up, we faced pressure from the time we became professional cricketers. The BCCI have groomed all of them and we’ve challenging ourselves to get better.
