POST-MATCH THOUGHTS:
Kane Williamson: A good surface, but the outfield was really random, and the wind factor were the reasons for such high scores. Two very competitive sides who played well in this match. You can take a few wickets early and put scoreboard pressure but that wasn't too be today.
Lasith Malinga: The bowlers didn't deliver many wicket-taking balls. We didn't use variations even on a batting wicket. We have to analyse that and come back stronger in the next game. We are playing on the same wicket next match also, so we have to use our variations, and we need to use our wicket-taking options. The players realise that we weren't up to the mark. I'm happy with the batting
Martin Guptill, MoM: Pretty good, happy with that outing. Certainly a good recovery in the end. I played the CPL and played in England, and in the last three months I did a lot of hardwork to come around and everything is fine with my injuries now. Everything is settled down now, I played a few games for Auckland, and I'm just trying to keep my balance as much as possible.
