Player of the Match: Ollie Pope
Ollie Pope (Player of the Match): "I think Stokesy walked off and we got two wickets. I was keen to keep him off the field a bit longer. But Gus bowled fast and a good day in the end.
We saw it last night. When the lights came on, it seamed a bit. Root and Brook did a fine job. There was something in the wicket in the first phase of the Test match. We did well to adapt to the conditions.
I have been working hard about my game and I'm happy with where it is right now. Happy with my performance and hopefully, I'll carry it forward."

Kraigg Brathwaite (West Indies Captain): "We could have been better with the ball. Probably 100-120 runs too much. We were good with the bat in the 1st innings and didn't follow that in the 2nd innings.
The effort was good to see. The fitness is there but we need to be much more disciplined. We gotta get better at knowing how to bowl at these pitches. Kavem gets a hundred and then not much in the 2nd innings, that's Test cricket. Learning from this will make us better in the future.
We dropped some crucial catches, that happens. What we can control is our line and lengths. We need to take our catches because catches win matches.
We gotta look forward to the future. Test cricket is never easy game. My word to the guys is to stay mentally tough and keep fighting."

Ben Stokes (England Captain): "Yeah, amazing. I thought the comeback we showed after the opening partnership was remarkable. To pick up 10 wickets for 70 runs is exceptional. Bash showed the world what he is capable of. To change his pace and line with nothing much from the surface was extraordinary.
I think in team sports, you want quite a few individuals to step up. The partnership last night between Root and Brook was great. Those conditions were hard to bat in. The ball was swinging. It gave us a good platform. We would have been happy to get some more runs in the first innings. But really happy with the performance of the boys throughout this Test.
I think this week has been great for the progression that this team has made. Ben Duckett's second innings was a great example of that. He adapted and changed his style with different fields set. Joe was Joe. Fantastic knock and another hundred in the winning cause. Brook was also sensational. Wood on any other day would get Player of the Match for the way he bowled.
(On Mark Wood) I think like Woody has not got the rewards in this game. Like batting, bowling is also about partnerships. With the way he was bowling, we got wickets from the other end. He will always give his heart out. He has been fantastic this week and I'm sure he will get the rewards in the future.
(On Chris Woakes) Woakesy has found his rhythm on day two. He led the attack brilliantly. He changed the game for us. He picked the first wicket and it led to a collapse. Coming into this game with some external noise, I think it hasn't affected him much."
