Khan: We had to play well

The captain has spoken in regards to the match against St Cuthberts last night,'It was a very difficult match for us and I did predict it may be a close one.St Cuthberts are a form team and they have good knowledge of this ground so it made it more difficult for us.They are a good team and have some good players. However, I must pay credit to my team for battling very hard and their rewards were paid off at the end when we won the match.

Khan later said that 140 was a good score but also a gettable one,'I think it was defintely chaseable.At one stage they were on course but Razzaq bowled very well in the middle phase and that for me was crucial in us winning.We batted very well although I was a little disappointed we could not get up to 150 or 160.I felt mine and Sonu's partnership was crucial and if we could have stuck around for another over then we would have definetely reached our target.Nevertheless, it was a great victory for us and we are looking forward to our next game and hopefully keep up this winning habit.
