    Reaction from Tillakaratne Dilshan and Mashrafe Mortaza after Sri Lanka beat Bangladesh in World Cup Pool A on Thursday.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Tillakaratne Dilshan, Sri Lanka
    "Yes, this was a really important game for us. I think we didn't play our 100 percent the last two games. I think every department we did really well today batting, bowling, fielding. This confidence we can carry the rest of the series. I think this performance, everyone's confidence is high, especially the bowlers come back really well, especially Malinga has come back. He's getting form a little bit more every single game. I think it's a very important win for us going forward."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Mashrafe Mortaza, Bangladesh captain
    "I mean, definitely if we could win, that could have been very good for us, but there was no pressure. I think the boys didn't take any pressure. Of course the expectation was there, but at the same time our focus was to play good cricket, but we couldn't."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Tillakaratne Dilshan, Sri Lanka
    On Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene retirement
    "Yeah, no doubt two great players retiring after this World Cup. We have a big loss for Sri Lanka, but I know they can help for the youngsters to come to ‑‑ they've got the experience they can share with the youngsters. I have not decided about my career. I want to play another couple of years, but I'm not planning that far. I want to finish this World Cup and discuss with the management and the captain and coach what they are looking for from me for Sri Lanka from the future, then I'll take call after World Cup."
