Babar Azam: We would have also bowled first. It is a morning match, the pitch is fresh and we will look to put the runs on the board. Good to see sun is out, we haven't seen sunshine for the last 3-4 days. He (Imad) has an injury but we will cover it up by playing the four fast bowlers.

Monank Patel | Player of the Match
It is a big achievement, beating Pakistan and playing (World Cup) for the first time. It was a complete team effort. We won the toss and we made sure we utilised the conditions well, we did really well to keep them under 160. I am happy with my contribution and more happy that we won the game. We spoke about the top three contributing and happy that myself and Gous could do that. The plan was to play proper shots and he (Gous) took the pressure off me. Happy to get the two points. As a batter and player you want to show off in the big games and I am happy that my knock came in a winning cause.

Babar Azam | Pakistan Captain
First 6 overs while batting we didn’t capitalise. Back to back wickets always put you on the backfoot, as a batter you need to step-up and build partnerships. We were not up to the mark in the first 6 overs. Our spinners also did not take wickets so these things cost us. Very hard, all credit to USA, they played better than us in all 3 departments. Little bit of moisture in the pitch, it was also two-pace. As a professional you need to assess the conditions.
And That's That!
What a group we are having in this World Cup! Group A promises to be fun alright! The IND vs PAK tie on Sunday, will surely be a mouth-watering affair, given how things have gone here in Dallas. Till then, it's good night from us here.
