  • Intro:

    Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurasinghe, speaking in Melbourne, Australia, credited his team's success to players being able to focus more finely at this World Cup.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Chandika Hathurasinghe, Bangladesh coach (on India's strengths)

    "Generally India is very good batting side and that is no different in this tournament as well. They are very very good, world class players. The main thing i have seen in this tournament is how well their fast bowlers bowled. So that's one area they used to be not so strong. So now in this tournament they have been really doing well. That's one area we will probably keep one eye on".

    SOUNDBITE (English) Chandika Hathurasinghe, Bangladesh coach (on Bangladesh's success)

    "I think we always talk about clear role for players and then we talk about playing with freedom and we had our sports psychologist called Dr Phil (Jones) and he help us immensely for players to concentrate on their own game and not to be afraid to make decision in the middle. That gives players a lot of freedom to ..room to move and do things. And the culture that we are trying to create in the dressing room has also helped a lot"

    SOUNDBITE (English) Chandika Hathurasinghe, Bangladesh coach (on what could be the difference between teams in the quarter final)

    "I think the team that is going to enjoy the occasion more will have a better game. So for us the key is to embrace the opportunity that has been presented and come to enjoy that situation because for us there is nothing to prove, that we know that we are good enough, that's why we are here, so we are going to our potential and just enjoy the game".
