00:00West Indies got a 135 run partnership between Justin Graves and John Campbell against India in the first one-day
00:06international.
00:08Graves went on to score 101 as the West Indies were restricted to 295-7. India chased the target for
00:15the loss of two wickets.
00:16Graves commented on his performance.
00:19Happy to get the first one out of the way. In terms of the innings, I think I started pretty
00:24well.
00:25Got off to a quick start and then just about keeping that tempo throughout the innings.
00:30He says pitch conditions were good.
00:32The pitch was pretty good as you can see from the scores in the game.
00:37It was just keeping it low risk.
00:39Play proper cricket shots and just try to get through the ball play and then just take it from there.
00:43Graves says his results came down to discipline while understanding his role in the team.
00:48He believes it's important for them to win ahead of the qualifiers.
00:51It obviously wasn't enough because India's batting line-up were a very, very good batting line-up.
00:56But in terms of us as a group, I think we did some things really, really well today.
01:00Again, talking about the start between John Campbell and myself.
01:04We slowed a bit, but then I think Amir played a very, very good innings as well as Ralston.
01:09But, you know, it's just understanding where we need to be in terms of going into the qualifiers and, you
01:15know, trying to get that momentum.
