"We're in it (the tournament) to win it," he says before signing off.

"Marlon (Samuels) set the tone and gave us the momentum to carry into out innings," Sammy adds.
...
"West Indies mixed it up really well and didn't allow our players to get away," he says further.

"If he had got 200 or 220, that would have been a match-winning score," says Eoin Morgan.
