    SOUNDBITE: (English), Waqar Younis, Pakistan coach:

    "Look, of course, I am relieved. There is no doubt about that but yeah, the tournament is still very open. We are keen do well against the South Africans. Of course, this victory will definitely give us a boost, at least, a positive thinking toward the next two games.

    "We try to pick up the best side on a day. So if it's Nasir, or Sarfraz or Younis or someone else comes, whatever we feel is the right combination, that's how we go about it. Yes, seven batters, I still feel that Pakistan do need an extra batsman in the lineup, but unfortunately our batsmen are out of form, and we're not really getting what we were looking for from the seven batsmen."

    " I think teams have picked up. You can clearly see India picking up very late. Teams like South Africa lost badly, started picking up, so that's what we're hoping, and hoping that all these boys who got runs today and carry on with it. I think the crucial game will be South Africa. Just not only to qualify, but also just for a morale booster we'd need to beat a top team to sort of get our confidence back."
